Outdrive Model?

[bobkat1864]

The ser. no. on my outdrive is 5380642, and I have been trying to use that no. to find out what model it is. The engine is a MCM 898, 305 V8, engine ID 5403939, and the boat is a 1979 Skiffcraft. I am looking for a source for OEM parts and service manuals for both the engine and drive...plan to repalce the bellows and seals, so also need to see if Ill need any special tools, and where i can get them...thanks in advance for any help...Bob.

Re: Outdrive Model?

The drive is to old to positivily ID the drive by a serial number, but if you spend some time looking at the ID info and pictures in the thread link below, you can sure found out what year it is and what kind of drive it is. I will probably be a MC-1, but you will know for sure soon.

Scroll down the page and look at the pictures before you download the ID info.
