What Gil risers do I need?
I am in the process of putting a Mercruiser 420 in my 88 Powerquest spectra xl 222. Dropped the motor in place tonight as spring is almost upon us in northern Mi. Not only are the risers I bought off Craigslist too long, they’re also too high. Anyone have any idea what risers I actually need? I’ve attached pictures of the ones I have. Part # 818495a1.
Thanks in advance!

I went with these. Had to add a wedge but I have raised exhaust ports on my heads

The Merc 420's came with TRS drives and had a transmission, thus the reason they are too long and the wrong angle.
You need to find out if your exhaust holes in the transom are in the stock Bravo cutout location.
