My latest project - 1990 Glastron with AQ131 engine (actually a 230A). I am getting together a list of things needing to be replaced and the costs. I would like to know if it is possible to replace the engine with a basic 3 liter. I know Volvo used the 3 liters in the SX drives, etc. But not sure on these older drive combinations. I have the SP-A outdrive.

The cutout in the transom is different and there is no gimbal bearing. This setup has a bellhousing with a primary driveshaft - or something like that.

Bottom line - does anyone know if they made a bellhousing that fits a 3 liter?
