Default Re: Transom Swells about half an inch

I tried to post addl pics today but I am having issues signing on to my Photobucket acct. Anyway I drilled many holes in the transom and it is not good. Lot's of moisture in the decent wood shavings but more black dirt than wood shavings. I started digging down from the cap and that wood is a mixture of good and bad wood. Even though there is no flex in the transom when I bounce on the motor I am going to re-do the transom. How do I take the motor off and what to I use to lift it? Would an engine lift for a car work? Will it give me the height needed?

thx
