You can pick up the bellows kit on ebay for 100.00. Spend the weekend on it and do it yourself. Patience is the key with the bellows and drive install.
Wish I was there to help ya , I'd do it in a heartbeat for ya.
Read sterndrive.com , here , iboats.com , anywhere you can , in the next 2 days and go for it. :)
I got faith in ya , just take your time.... and you'll save yourself 300.00 and the rest of the season :)

Thanks Larry. I just looked at the drive and the upper and lower gears are completely stripped. Mechanic said lower drain ug was loose. I thnk maybe some punk kids loosened it while she was in the street the night before.
Will the drive from a 3.7 work on my 3.0? Different gears but both on 4 cylinders. Found a used one cheap.

Re: Diablo 3.0 Power Options

To much difference in ratio not to mention the 3.7 is a Alpha 1 Gen 1 drive , and the 3.0 in your boat is a Alpha 1 Gen 2 drive.
Ratio on 3.7 is 1.84 while ratio on 3.0 is 1.94.

Sorry :(
