Nope

Volvo listings show the 151 in front of 290 and SP-A drive units.

Re: aq151c

The 151 is an OHC engine, your 130 is an OHV engine. Two completely different type engines. But they are both Volvo. The flywheel covers have different part numbers, but that doesn't mean it won't work, but that would be a take it off and try it type thing. Your other problem is going to be the exhaust tube to the transom shield. It will have to be replaced since the angle is different. You would probably have to get one for an AQ125 since they have the same kind of transom shield and the same exhaust manifold setup. The 151 tube is for either a 290 or an SP style.
That is just a couple of things to look at, who knows what other problems could come up with a swap like that.
