Everything is dependent on how/where the motor was mounted (so not to need to drill more holes).
The base (boat side) of the plate usually works out good if using the highest mounting holes position and adjusting the motor height at the motors bolt holes. The (normal) 5 inches of travel, coupled with the amount of setback should allow you about 6 1/2 inches of gained height. Mine is a little lower than normal, due to the fact I insisted on using most of the existing transom bolt holes when we changed from a 20" to a 25" transom.    This is the lowest position possible with mine, a little too deep for most circumstances, given the motor setback. This may be for good maintaining a toehold in rough seas.

Hey TSUBAKI, that engine needs to go up another hole easily. You'd freak out if you seen how much higher the engine is on my HYDRA, and it still isn't high enough.

I agree FERM!
And I do have one bolt hole left to go up but I'm able to achieve everything I want where it is. When lifted up and tilted forward completely, I can even change the spark plugs standing flatfooted in the back of the boat without having to lean out and over the motor. In those photo's above, I had it tilted up just high enough to clear the water.
