This is my set up.
IMCO SCX upper standard SC lower with standard vertical shaft. Propshaft is 2" higher than standard Mercury XR.
If you want a real answer to your question and not a bunch of guesses, call Fred at IMCO.

Nice setup, ITS with seven inches back makes for clean water. Every one foot back you raise drive up two inches. You guys without ITS have less options before you blow the prop out for miles before your on plane. Phantom new 32' all will have ITS because of the cleaner water. Hence lower X dimensions without raising engine and center of gravity. Sorry for rambling on here. My 2 cents
