All dialogue & measurements stated above should work but I found that I did not have enough room in the splashwell to use the slots on the engine bracket because I used the top bolt holes. Instead, I used the top holes of the motor bracket and the bottom two holes just a little above and to the outside of the slots...but below the 4 sets of holes on the very top of the bracket. Mine worked fine but there was no adjustment. There was room in the splashwell to through-bolt using the slots if the engine were raised to use the 3rd set of holes down from the top but I would have been cavitating. Paul
