Just to echo Phil's comments above, when I repowered a couple of years ago, I brought in a lot of printed out research notes from this website to help get the installation correct. A lot of the dealers seem to think that you're telling them how to do their job if you give them input on the installation when really all we want is a proper set up; I thought I was going to end up in a fist fight with their service manager for a few seconds. Fortunately, he started to listen and look at what I was asking for. As the ultimate compliment to the brain trust on this site, he told me at delivery that my boat was the best set up he'd ever seen for a 90 ETEC, everything was dead on to Evinrude's specifications. Good luck, stand your ground and keep your cool, as Phil said above at the end of the day it's your money.
