Tip to save a little time: Linkages to the trim and reverse gate have quick release ends so no need to unscrew the fittings on the pump unit. Just slide the sleeves back and pull the cables off the ball fittings. You still have to unscrew the steering linkage though.

Thank you! Results will be posted tomorrow on the full build page, but its upper 70s. This impeller is a bit tall for the setup; we are going to continue adding mods to increase power where it'll be better suited for future updates.
