Well, comparing the length of the lower unit for a yamaha may be different than an OMC. Even comparing length for different HP OMC's reveals different drops!

Your 1 5/8" rise is helpful though. I measured the rise by raising the motor "2 holes," equates to 1.5," so that may be a coincidence but seems like it would help.

Probably raise the motor up in the next week so I can retest. Any recommendations for simple ways to fill in those old holes?
