    Torque tab size??

    Getting close to having the nose cone job finished on my lower. I welded on a piece of aluminum for a torque tab and have been fairing it out with the Bob's epoxy that came with the cone kit. I think right now its probably too big, I just don't know how far to cut it down.

    Case is a 2:1 preload if it makes a difference.

    What is an approximate size for a torque tab?

    Currently it extends beyond the rear of the skeg about 7/16" and rises about 3/8" off the starboard side. Hope that explanation makes sense, pictures below.
