I have the aq131 and a 270 drive andI am putting the engine back in. I have the engine and bellhousing bolted together out side of the boat. So, I will put it back in and bolt the bellhousing to the ring on the transom. how do i make sure the shaft and upper gear housing are aligned?

There are three higher sections on your transom plate(exactly on the ring, where you put your bellhousing in), one on top and one on each side. When all three points have the same distance to your bellhousing, your drive is strait.
