    What amount of set back works well?
    Give Paul a call 905- 775-0862 at Top Gun Marine he can get you set up string steering wise.

    2" of set back is a good place to start on an ally with a stinger

    Are you gonna race T850?

    Do you have trim?

    That's great that your going to come race!

    Would probably have to make your own for a 2" adjustable plate.

    The Bob's plate is also a good suggestion at 4". You can also check with Hevi Kevi pretty sure he makes a 3" jack plate. He races t850 as well.

    Where are you located and what lake do you run on?

    Jeremy Culp one of the 750 racers is a Dunnville boy who would be a good local source for help.

    Dave and Jake Elsey are also good sources for information. Dave races the same model of Allison. I am sure Dave runs more than 2 inches of set back and he had to move his battery well forward to get a good balance. You could start with a 2 inch Bob's Machine Shop spacer.
