Think i've got one to pick up tomorrow from a guy from Belfair.
I'm fairly mechanically inclined, but don't know a whole lot about outdrives.
I'm going to pressure test it. If it holds pressure, I'm going to bolt it on and give it a shot. if it doesn't, I guess I'll replace the seals. watched a pretty good youtube on it, but it does seem like I'll need a few specialty tools.
we'll see how it goes, nothing looks all that hard as long as corrosion hasn't ruined your life. seems easier than a cylinder head replacement, which I did a couple of years ago.
