[QUOTE="MDCrappie, post: 513860, member: 160"] I don't remember exactly where it sits now and the motor is in the shed. What I did though was raised the motor 1/2" at a time. Got to the point where I needed raise it above where the clamp would not hit transom so I made that plate. I then raised the plate 1/4" at a time (securing it with 4 screws into transom) and did test runs. When the motor started to "blow out" I stopped and took the bracket back down to the last spot I had it. Then I bolted the bracket thru the transom. IIRC my top speed went from 10 or 11 up to 14+mph.
