Mercruiser ID help

[dmellich]

We just "inherited" a Wellcraft 192 Classic w/a Mercruiser engine/drive unit. This is new to me so need some help.

I pulled the following numbers off the engine and would like to know year/specs if possible. Thanks in advance for any help.

Drive serial # - OC836150
Motor serial # - B485713
Drive unit serial # - OB471449

It is a 3.7L engine, but it's called the 165 if you look up parts for it. It's a 1986 model 4 cyl engine (470 Style Engine).
You have 2 outdrive serial numbers there
The 0C836150 drive is an 89 Alpha I with a 1:84-1 gear ratio.
The OB471449 SN is also a drive, but probably the original as it's an 86 also and is the same gear ratio.
