Strut advice - Miss Bud conversion

[GnrlPatton]

I've got my straight shaft ripped out and am looking to replace it with an adjustable strut flex shaft. I have a Proboat stock flex cable on hand already (I think it's .150), as well as a Feigao 8XL. I'm trying to figure out what is the best combo to use. Does this look right?

I've also got some brass tube that I'll be using to build up the driveline, but the flex liner that I got fits too loosely in the 1/4", but not at all in the 3/16". Any suggestions on that?

I'm taking pictures as I go, I'll start up a thread on it soon.

Steve probably has a better strut than that. You do not need a skeg version on a hydro. Those are pretty light struts. You want an offset rudder from the strut. The solinger is pretty nice but I see he is out. Etti also makes a nice set up perfect for your hydro... Steven can get you that as a Etti dealer.
