I cant emphasize enough the importance of contacting Bob's Machine Shop for the updated stop block (im not sure of the exact name). There was a horrific accident recently where the outboard came into the cockpit of a Ranger. Both fishermen were seriously injured with one having to have a leg amputated.
This has been a known issue for awhile, however its close to home now with the incident last week on the Upper Ches. VERY IMPORTANT!
