If you got it to drop an 1/8, try gently driving a couple wedges in the gap.

Yes CTerrebonne, I do have a very small gap all the way around. I can see through the gap anough to make out the waterpump housing and I can make out the shiftshaft rod. I still would like to think that it's not the driveshaft, that it's that front stud that isn't moving at all.
I almost thought about taking a sawzall blade in the gap and cutting off the stud, but I know that's going to be asking for trouble, because the rear bolt from under the anode tab was missing when I took off the anode. Just a straight hole all the way. And I'm positive that there is not a bolt still in it because I can seperate them enough to see the anode bolt and there is nothting else in the way.

Well I put it back in the water today and it ran OK, but the temp gauge has went from running at 1/4 gauge to 1/2 gauge on plane. It did have a full tank of gas and drinks and 4 people onboard with some decent swells out there. Not wanting to melt the powerhead, I brough it back in. Telltale is sputtering a little so I know it's time to replace that pump.
Going to give it another go today with prybars. What would happen if I tied the lower unit to a post and pulled lightly with the truck? Will a shop touch a job like this and if they do, how much would it cost to have it done?
