I have a high rake prop on my 1973 MC-1 drive so that means the factory trim tab anode (part number 34127A1) does not work with the newer style props. Is there an offset trim tab made for these older drives? Do the Alpha 1 anode trim tabs fit the MC-1?

What engine / Drive number do you have? 165, 120, 140, or other?
I ask do to there's a suggested difference in ensuring the right part number (34127A1) to start was mentioned correctly is all as noted in the two part numbers referenced in the following parts guide item numbers 85 for example, https://www.mercruiserparts.com/bam/subassembly/30826/1574/80

Sierra 18-6014A Zinc Anode Should work though.
Sierra high-quality engine parts are designed to meet OEM specifications. For applications where extra clearance is required for high rake propellers...,http://ww2.iboats.com/Anode-Trim-Ta...1367159--session_id.031009075--view_id.373281


Take note the number with no "A" at the end (18-6014) is for the high performance zinc anode...Different drive design.

I have the 165hp inline 6.
The drive serial number is 3505794.

I am purely in fresh water.

How did you come up with the Sierra cross reference?

Is there a website I can use in the future?

Thanks for the help.
