hello gents , installing the 305 chev into my 68 sea ray heres the trouble... it slips easily onto the coupler and slides in about 1 1/2 " and then stops about 3/4 short of home. ive pryed pushed clamped twisted and wiggled but cant get it to seat. i read once that you can put it into gear and twist the prop but this is an electric shift and that doesnt work. i even had the wife rock the engine back and forth and looked at the ball gears and they turm when she wiggles . what do i do? please help. thanx in advance...dimitri
