Does anyone know what the lower unit gear ratio was on a 1983 Evinrude 140 V4?

Thanks.

The 1984 140's used the common 13:26 gear ratio. Probably the same for your year.

Thanks for the info.

Would that also be expressed as a 2.0 or 2 to 1 ratio as in 2 crankshaft rotations to one prop rotation? Trying to understand how it compares to my current I/O which has a 1.6 ratio. I believe that would be 1.6 crank revolutions to 1 prop revolution.
