Hey Larry,

We are gaining clearance as we move forward. We're thinking inserts may work now.

I have Stelling boxes on my AT and the engines are moved forward a foot. My set up uses a rear plate for the mount. Mine uses the normal splined Stelling shaft and that inserts into a splined driveshaft extension.
The box has a the bearing carrier in it with a female spline on one end to accept the input shaft from the drive and the other side is a 1410 flange. There will be a similar flange on the flywheel. (no Merc coupler). We will have a driveshaft made with a 1410 yoke on each end. It will bolt up to both the flywheel and the bearing carrier.

Eddie, my 1st 37 had Stellings boxes with the set up that you are talking about. I ended up raising the motors an inch along with the inner transom plate in order to run the long driveshaft straight into the Merc rubber coupler. At that time I was running some modified bravos with about 800 hp. The rubber coupler set up seemed to be easier on the drives. Best of luck with this setup and HP. Tape his wallet to the throttles to remind him they are not 6s.
