"Hey guys, its me again. My engine is due to arrive tomorrow! I went onto SELOC to get any information about the swap that I could. I have ran into one possible issue already. It is calling for an alignment tool to be used before mounting the out drive back to the transom. Where might I be able to find said alignment tool and or instructions on how to use it?
I also read this at SELOC:
If the stern drive was not removed, the installation procedure may be continued without aligning the engine, because the engine mount height was undisturbed. However, if the vertical drive was removed, engine alignment is essential to prolong drive-train life.
Does anyone think that this will be possible to do or does it usually require removing the outdrive?"
