[QUOTE="eeshaw, post: 479819, member: 25150"] Call the jet manufacturer and see what they suggest. I have zero experience with jets. If I were to do it though I'd go with a 20 inch intermediate housing and a jack plate. My thinking behind this is that you'll pickup up 5 inches right from the get go with the housing. The jack plate will place the engine farther to the rear of the hull transfering weight farther to the rear and should place the motor deeper into the water, possibly by 2 inches. [/QUOTE]
