I believe there is more than one model that uses the same starter kit.----Look it all up on say ------mercruiser.com--------Make a list of those motors and wait till a deal on a blown up motor comes along.

You could always keep Googling/ebaying the part number from time to time as you may find it lower someday. Good luck.

Good idea Racerone.:thumb:
