There are a whole bunch of sizes. It depends on the kit, where the transom and drive mounting locations are etc....

Far and away, the most commonly used cylinder, no matter who makes it, is the nine inch, for sterndrive applications. Be it single, or twin drives.

I recently worked through a mixed bag of Zeiger steering with Latham drive caps.
Paul Everett at Everett Performance was very helpful and they manufacture the Zeiger steering....top of the line.
