Just finished a complete transom rebuild on my 1988 28' Chapparall eveything went well with the help from the restoration forums will be posting pics. of project soon in that forum. My question is where can I find some tips and tricks for reinstalling the outdrive I have helped a friend do it before but I know there are things like the positioning the shifting mechanism correctly before sliding the outdrive foward.It is in foward gear from when I removed it. It is a Alpha 1, 350 merc. engine. The transom assembly seems fairly simple other than keeping that foam gasket in place while installing the assembly why do they fold it in half for packaging seems to want to keep folding up. Thanks for reading
