Could you post some more pics of the engine height??
I'm running a similar kit, and thinking of raising my engine a couple of cm's..
think mine is sitting a bit to deep..
Putting it too high will reduce traction or?? but what is to high , 5/10 cm above the "bottom"..?
excuse my ignorance..

Matt:
Not gone to ground mate................went to Latvia, amoungst other things; the internet hasnt made it that far yet!
Lrs,
In all honesty, NO I havent. My next move will be to make the propshaft centre about 1 inch below bottom, Lazer 23" Engine is dead centre on transom. Having asked several far more knowledgeable people than myself on this subject, it seems thats quite a reasonable formula. Everything else after that is either marginal or a personal choice of how you like your boat to feel.

good to be honest
Sounds like it could be a good setup, however it does sound very simple/easy  maybe too easy
