15" mid V-king questions
I have a stock fishin 98 200 efi that Im starting with. I also have a notched lower unit so does that mean I can use the 200efi clamp and trim assembly with a 15" mid? Are there any 15" mid sections that exhaust through the prop or no? Whats a dry stack all about? Im sure I will have more questions but its a start. Thanks gents

The "saddle" on the clamp has to be shortened as well as the tiller, shift shaft, and water pipe. So, "no." The V-King was designed for a 20" V6 so you're going to need more mods than that to get it set up properly on your boat. It can be done successfully, look at Bill Foner...

Thanks boys, I’m thinking the 20 will suffice for now. It ran 78 before and 90 seems far from that.

for no reason should you have to cut or modify your transom. to cut a mid you need to start with an single ram clamp, and then have someone talented cut it or else youll break driveshafts or the mid/ clamp itself. (ronnie holzmacher, Bill foner, marty powell) are all good guys for this. If you dont wanna deal with cutting, Factory 15 is a sweet but expensive option. The boat does not need a 15, but let me tell you the handling drastically improves and if i was to ever buy another stream, it would only get a 15 inch mid.

I set a 15'' on my Kings transom and I didn't think there was any way it would get water even with the sporty. Guess I was wrong. It was 2'' above the pad. Beautiful boat JABCO.....
