New project.Guess I should start by figuring out what exactly it is I have. Need to know actual model number of this outdrive for ordering parts & maintenance. It is a 1971 attached to a Chrysler 318. From reading and talking I believe it is a Volvo 270 with a 250 lower unit. Yes/no? Any help appreciated.

Try Cobe Marine in Pasadena,Md. he'd probably know what was hooked to what.
Please update if you find out.

Looks like a 270 /275 but being it's on a 1971 and a Chrysler V-8 ???
Could be a 200 drive?

No Title

Called Cobe Marine. Plate was where you said it would be tkrfxr. Under the large hex nut on the helmet. Unfortunately numbers are either worn or scratched off. Sent Tom at Cobe Marine a close-up of the helmet. He believes it is an early Volvo 270 or 250. Bell housing in the engine compartment is hard to see/get to. It looks as clean as a whistle, bright white. There is a yellow decal but obstructed by a hose. Will try and get at it later.
