I have a '96 19' Duckworth with a Redline 302 and an American Turbine Jet drive. I need to pull the motor to rebuild it. Any tricks or advice to disconnect the outdrive from the motor? TIA

Thank you. I left the driveshaft connected to the flywheel and let the slip yoke come apart. I hope that was OK.

Any Ford Redline engine manuals out there?

you may want to mark the slip yoke so it goes back together in same place on the chance that it was balanced together like a driveshaft

Too late for that. Motor is out and at the machine shop.
Ayuh,..... There may be a blind spline for alignment,....
If not, slip it back together with the caps in-line, or at worse, 90* from in-line,....
If you don't, it'll vibrate, Badly,....
