Well maybe i think i might have found a solution to the driveshaft angle...

Are the plates supposed to sit on the rail ? as you can see mine are elevated about a 1/2" or so..

If you remember when i got this boat it came with those custom angle iron feet

i replaced them with the right ones but never drilled new holes. I think just by dropping the engine down and making it flush with the rail , it should fix my angle prob

Check it.

Looking good there Steve!!!!

Glad to see it finally coming together, and that you're getting the bugs worked out. Have you started the engine yet? When you do, we better get a video of that thing!!!!!!!!

I think by the time this thing hits the water, i'll be able to legally have a beer for ya lol.

But I better not be able to, that's still 4 months away, today.

I think you found your problem

. If the plates were siting on the rails before than they should be on them now. But I still think you should check the angles just to be sure.

I hate this phuking boat

i dropped the engine down and sat it on the rail.. Now i have a gap between the plates and feet... So i
either i installed the rail backwards when i took it out or the guy before me did... So now im going to notch out the front plate and raise the rear a hair. That should give
me the angle i need for the drive shaft

I really wish someone would buy this fukin nighmare, im so fukin sick of working on it and nothing comes out right

FUK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does this look like its down too far?

« **Reply #737 on:** November 18, 2008, 03:06:54 PM »

Easy there killer ! Your on the right track . Make it right not make it work . It looks like to me that the entire motor is sitting too high .

This looks alot better !

« **Reply #740 on:** November 18, 2008, 05:41:05 PM »

not sure what your talking about, but just tighten the plate to the feet it will pull in. or you have to cut the feet aka pillow blocks

Yeah the gap between the feet and plate is crazy, I think i will notch the front plate out tomorrow and bolt this bitch up or blow it up

before you cut the plate take it off and bolt the rear down flush, then check the angle of the drive line. it may be out of wack

Don't be so "quick to hack", measure three times, cut once

I think something is still screwy

I have a solid driveline that can be used for alignment, maybe someone around you has made one?

Anyone?

Mine is welded square tubing with the U-joint ends set at 2* offset (made it myself for doing fast installs).

Patients my bro, patients

« **Reply #746 on:** November 18, 2008, 08:21:37 PM »

Sorry, I looked again and they both look wrong, but it's hard to tell since the drive line is not bolted up flush. But it looks to me like the rear needs to be raised and leave the front sitting on the rail. That would also help the gap between the plates and the blocks.

Hang in there. You're almost there and your work will be worth it. I have nuthing to offer that the others havent but my wishes of good luck. It's really looking good.
