I had to have my transom raised for same reason. Picked up 2mph once I got the housing to quit dragging. I actually think my welder raised more like 2" just to be safe.

You gotta figured in the transom angle. Just cause the transoms taller don't mean shit if it's on a steeper angle. If ya measure straight down from the top a the transom ta the bottom a yer boat by using a straight edge ta extend from yer boat I'd bet it's damn near 15".
