Can someone tell me the measurement from the transom to the back of the block or heads on standard Big Block with standard Mercruiser Bell Housing bolted to a standard Bravo transom assembly?

I pulled my engine and now need this dimension for my header tails.

I can measure tomorrow for you if you want.

sorry puppys are out

Xmas eve and you're going to work on the boat?? Me too!!

Anytime you can get a measurement I'd appreciate it.

Thank you!!

Kirk,
I went out to the garage and took the measurement for you. I am not certain that mine will be exactly the same as yours due to the angle of the transoms most likely be different.
I was trying to find a good constant point for me to measure so you can be exactly in the same spot. I decided that the top center bolt hole that is unused for the bellhousing, the one in the top of the block would be a good place. Besides, I had a clear shot straight to the transom with nothing in the way there.

Mine measured 12" .

Thanks Vinny. they should be the same or extremely close.

Merry Xmas

Kirk,

Are your ok with your dimension question if not I have the boat at the house and will uncover it for you to double check

I appreciate it Gary, but not neccessary.

There are a bunch of spoiled Pantera guys and others that have the luxury of boating all year around and they have been shooting me measurements!!

Thanks to everyone!
