(Allen Horning 1994 2023A Tall) Check with a dealer and see if an extension kit is available. On my omc it was a 15" extension housing, 15" drive shaft and a gear shit extension. If not a bracket will get you 10 to 16" but put your powerhead 15" closer to the water if that is a problem then it's time to get a longshaft. Bob
