Default Cutting Aluminum

Hey guys moving right along with spring opening, installed new LED nav lights on bow, installed new Lowrance 3500C and new horn and dressed up some wiring under the dash.
I had a problem last year if you remember where my engine sits about two-three inches to high on the bracket and ventilates when I try to trim up or go to fast in a chop. I spoke with Armstrong today and I can lower it and drill new mounting holes no problem but the top edge of the riser plate on the back of the bracket needs to be cut down about 1.5 inches, also no problem they say. How would you cut half inch thick marine aluminum, with a 90 degree turn at each end. I have a good sawzall and can get a couple of good metal blades but I am worried about being able to keep a straight line that way. Any suggestions
