V-17

So a friend of mine had this in his driveway. Transom was rotted and it has since been replaced with 2 layers of 3/4 marine plywood, some glass mat and a healthy ammount of West resin. I came across the '87 120 Johnson and gave it some new paint and stickers. Hull got painted and the sides got Rhino lining. It was a good project and it runs decent. The shaft is too long (25") so I'll either raise the engine or look for another. Anyone else have one of these boats? Any decent info on them? How low should the aft be sitting in the water (is the 120 too heavy)?
