[QUOTE="handyandy, post: 447896, member: 18942"] flapper works on poly, just can't really stick it to it as it will get hot kind of melt and gum up the flapper. Hand files work for more fine tuning, little hand held belt sander works too. My motor is on a hydro jack plate so I always mess with my height some while running straights I raise up a little for max speed least amount of spray coming into turns I lower down a little to keep from cavitating in turns. I wouldn't suggest a jack plate for jets I just run it cause I switch back to a prop lower now and again for certain trips. You should be able to raise your engine by just going up a set of holes on your engine, sometimes you need to be be between a set of holes I've seen guys cut the area between holes so their motors have slotted holes to allow for finer adjustment. Spray shield is probably easiest. [/QUOTE]
