1980 DT40 bit different bracket from 83+. Bolts are indeed M8. Slot (at least in graphic) is what limits adjust ability if bolted to transom. If it is not a slot but rather a hole then you can't...

How do you plan to attach motor, I'm guessing 4 bolts: 2 narrow in the middle and 2 at very top? Motor bracket has slots at bottom for adjusting height. Does its length match your adjustment range?...

As a matter of experiment why not. You got bigger motor/prop.



I think motor mounting bolts on Zuk are at least M10. At least mine are. 5/16 or M8 are somewhat undersized unless you use more ...

When you trim out your motor, AV plate may go up by an inch or so relative to keel at neutral trim.

How low below keel does anti-cavition plate should be on F470 at transom? My transom is 18". Common wisdom is 0-1" below on regular boats. That puts motor quite a bit above transom. Should...
