Yep, motor sits way down, can work some nice alternatives.

What's the gap between A and B, is it around 4" same as the lower leg ?

Would you say that the upper yellow edge crossing the red line is round or sharp as found in the lower leg.

Is it possible to raise both clamps upwards, how much space is there between the motor mount edge and the upper round clamp's discs ?

Happy Boating

So, let me ask you something...I’ve been running the engine with the fuel line disconnected, to drain the bowl, at the end of the day. I’ve noticed that the fuel filter bowl remains full. Is that correct?

Yep, the only way to lessen the fuel contents in the fuel filter is : when motor is about to die of fuel starvation keep pressed the white plug located in the motor connector and throttle back and forth the throttle grip, this procedure won't guarantee to empty 100% the filter's contents but will lessen the amount by at least 70 %.....
