Chrysler 318 & outdrive?

[Old Fish]

Looking at a 1972 Gibson 36' houseboat with Chrysler 318 and a paragon trans anybody know what out-drive might be attached to this and if any parts might still be available?:frusty:

Could possibly have a Marine Power outdrive or has someone mated a Mercruiser III drive to it.

Re: Chrysler 318 & outdrive?

Have to get a pic of it next time on dock. Dont' think its a Mercruiser. Had boat similar to this one a long time ago with Dana drive and its reverse function that holds drive down while in reverse had rotted away. Don't what that again!!!

Unfortunately hauling the boat out to find out what is missing then ordering then haul again would cost more than its worth. That's why I hoping that it's all there. Do you by any chase know if any of those Dana drives had hydraulic tilt like Merc.

This one does not have the cable coming out the back attached to the drive. Because the trans is inside. So I don't know how all that locking linkage works on this one.
