Cut up the 8mm threaded rod in 8 pieces, half of them 157mm and the others 165mm long. These rods will keep the distance of 92 mm between my motor jig and the saildrive, enough to fit the motor coupling in between. Tried them on the motor jig, and it looked Ok. Then I took the jig down to the boat to see if it would fit on my saildrive?
Well, it did not quite fit. I had to put it much closer to the saildrive to get it into place. At 55mm it worked. But as I will need 92mm I will need to get rid of some aluminium material in the bottom corners...
