Have a 2007 Volvo Penta SX-A, 1.97 gear ratio, 4.3 L engine. I need to replace this out drive. Can I replace it with a 2005 SX-M, 1.97 gear ratio, 3.0 L?

If you have the whole SX-M assembly, yes. I`m not sure the transom assemblies are interchangeable. The SX-A has the trim pump on the outside, the SX-M`s trim pump is on the inside. The water intake systems are also different. Whats wrong with the current SX-A drive?
