    '84 Lund 3.0L IO engine runs, locks up, runs, locks up

    if its a 1984 lund with a 3.0 volvo, it would have an AQ270 drive on it the OMC Cobra came out in late 1985, so if the boat is a 1984 it would not have a cobra could be a franken boat

    OMC SSV-177 Glastron 1979

    No, the OMC stringer drive is its own design. The Mercruiser MC drive is a much better product and the are nothing alike other than both have propellers

    '84 Lund 3.0L IO engine runs, locks up, runs, locks up

    being a 1984, you should have the 10-spline input shaft and you will need shims to rebuild the gear box (the later ones use crush sleeves)
