To switch to a Cobra drive, you will need to fill in the hole in the transom and re-cut for the Cobra. You will also need to get a transom assembly, drive coupler and flywheel housing. If you go that route, go for a Volvo SX drive.

Nope, nothing is the same but the engine block.

Sort of like updating an Edsel with a AMC Pacer. :D
