I was wondering how I could learn the differences between the outdrives Merc. makes, I know the years give them different names, but are there different names for different sizes? I would like to reseach for a swap from cobra. thanks
He is right. But not because the Alpha would not fit. It's just that the Alpha will not hold up to the torque and horsepower of a big block. Mercruiser put them behind the big blocks for a short time, but found they were getting destroyed in short order. Your best best is a Bravo... but yes, an alpha will fit.
