raising the motor up by i" increments is to much start over again and raise by 1/4" at a time and mark your jackplate so you know when you are dialed in to you best top end speed :D ;)

Keep in mind that lower doesn't have a true LWP so you may not be able to get that big case high enough to make it truely fast...but V8 has given you good advice...an 1" at a time is alot. You are running like 2%slip sooo...something is off or you're really hooked up lol.
