Post bent trim screw on GDSD
I was reading in the classified about someone had a bent trim screw. Has anyone else had one? I don't see how it would bend. The only time I ever use it is when it is on the trailer and I am working on the motor. When I am running it is screwed all the way out. The motor drops when I am taking off and when planed out it rides the surface. How are they getting bent?

That guy had a super modded motor if I recall and apparently that was causing the bent trim screw.

I still can't see it bending even if it had a 454 chevy hooked up to it. My lower unit never hits it as I have it turned all the way in. I have to watch it to make sure it doesn't rattle all the way out while I am riding around.
