My dumb self mounting the engine 1.6 inches too far forward lol . I was gauging it wrong when I installed it and went to put prop on after I drilled and glued the lags for the engine, and said oh crap. So I could have redone the engine mounting, make a spacer or get new drive shaft made so I went with easiest solution since I work at a machine shop . it seems to work fine for now I'm prob going to get a new shaft made eventually though

And you answered my next question. Cause I was then wondering what the affect was on the shaft angle.

I made the spacer to mimic what the coupler did so it lined back up just like before and centered. I only have 1 short test run on it and it seemed to do fine but I'll update it after this weekend as to how it performed
