83 ranger 330V, 1970 1150, jackplate??

[johnnyrudeinator]

okay heres the prob, I've got an 1150 on an 83 ranger 330V and when I turn to the left it quits peeing...I know the engine needs to be about 1" lower...plate not quite level with bottom of boat...I don't like seeing the pee stream do that...this only on plane in a turn but I still don't like it...now the question. would a jack plate be worth my while..I think with the angle of the transom I would actually be able to lower the motor more into the water. I don't want to drill anymore holes in the transom. I've never had any experience with a jackplate, I know what they do though...they jack the motor up..but is there enough adjustment on a manual jackplate to get my engine deeper in the water? I know it will improve on plane performance and planing speed...but thats fine..I just want the motor deeper in the water...it is a 20" shaft motor. I used the existing holes in the transom. Anyone use one with an inline before?? Just wondering what you think...heard you could plug the top few holes on the lower unit but these engines have enough trouble with cooling to do that to it. Thanks alot for you input!
