Alpha I Gen II to Gen I

[Tubingluvr]

Boat currently has no engine or outdrive....bought it that way....checked numbers off Mercruiser transom assy and determined it was a gen II....does it have to be replaced with a Gen II or will a Gen I bolt up?

Does that mean the engine has to be newer than a '91 also or is a pre gen II compatible?

Re: Alpha I Gen II to Gen I

engine can be anything with the 12 in flywheel., If the transom housing if for a GEN II ,it needs a GEN II drive regardless of the motor.the housing can be removed and a Alpha type installed with an Alpha drive or Series 1(MC1).
