ok so i think ive gotta prealpha drive. 78 305. so i ordered a transom remount kit. it was like 108 bux so im hopin its right. somebody on here told me the newer style kits would work for gaskets and bellows and such. so it says on the box 83 to 90 units. its a sierra kit #18-2601-1.should i return it ?

Very early ones used a bellows with out the ridge,If the one you remove has the ridge the kit will work.
