[QUOTE="lukeD, post: 262726, member: 8454"] what is the proper spaceing between the impeller and liner? i was thinkin that it was 1/8" but i wasnt sure i took my shoe off today after our trip up from Ononadoga ramp and the water is pretty skinny in some places and i did hot a few times bent the grates in the shoe pretty good so i took the shoe off and cleaned it up and straightend the grates out as much as i could and when i put it back together i put one shim on the top of the impeller and the rest on the bottom and it has probably 1'16-1/8" from impeller to the liner...does this sound about right? had me my wife and 2 kids today and the boat ran ok but could only turn about 4300 with it but it ran much better after having it timed and the carbs fixed from flooding still wish it had a little more umph but it will work.
