adding the boxes at that height will likely hurt you. you said you were going to cut it and run it so does that mean the transom was replaced? and if so why not raise the engines? or is something not allowing the engines to come up.

I ran the Arneson adapter on the smaller shaft drive no big deal. If you wanted 2 big shaft drives I can do that too , about $1500 for the big shaft.(nows the time since they are apart) I was just going to keep them for spares.. They come with 2" spacers so you got some room to experiment. $9k as is (19 and 26 splined shafts) $10, 500 with new 26 spline big shaft. 4`s are same height as 5`s I`ve found the best set up is about 1-2" below bottom. The best rooster is even with bottom thou :D |
With 5s - yes, you should be able to go up or down an inch with the boxes, there are three bolt hole patterns (similar with #3 setup? I dunno). Then you can space down 2". Typically these are setup @ neutral, so you could theoretically go up 1", and down 3" from hull bottom.
I don't think you're going to get what you want with putting the 3s on boxes. Looks like you may be able to achieve <2" up max (factoring in "up".833" w/ 10" box setback, and mount the box on the "highest setting" bolt hole "up" 1" = 1.83")? |

So if I just run what I have now at the same height and cut the transom can I put 5s on boxes later without cutting or filling the transom? |
