installing new SEI A1 upper.. 1987 3.0 GM 1.94. it's the correct upper for my boat, gave serial # to SEI, they confirmed it, got new gaskets, seals, greased up shaft slid in, bit of giggling, sliding down the bolts and stops less than 1/4 from flush,, what am I doing wrong here? the lower is separated from the upper, took it apart and inspected the water pump which was fine.. boats in forward gear.. should I have the lower connected and turn the prop to close the gap so the upper goes flush for bolt on?? thanks all
