For sale is a complete, genuine Mercruiser 898 Outdrive (both upper and lower units).  (Pre-Alpha).  Serial Number 4785545.
The outdrive is in very good condition, with minor scratches and wear (see pictures). It was removed from my boat about 20 years ago ('78-'79 Citation) and has been stored in my garage since then. The boat had a Chevrolet 350 cu. in. engine, and when it died I got rid of the boat but kept the outdrive.
The outdrive has a 1.50 gear ratio with a standard (Right) rotation. I believe it will also fit 888 Ford applications (but verify that).  It has been separated in two for shipping. Prior to separation, the fluid was clean and no water intrusion or leaks were observed. It shifts smoothly into forward, neutral and reverse. The zinc is like new. Outdrive has the original Mercruiser paint except for a few places on the skeg, and wear spots that were touched up (see pirctures). 
The skeg has never been damaged.


Seller is not an expert and information given is believed to be accurate and correct, however, buyer assumes all responsibility to verify the information and application. The item is sold "as-is" with no warranty. Free local pickup is possible (Hagerstown, MD 21740). Otherwise, I am willing to ship but buyer pays all shipping costs and if desired, insurance costs. The sale is final. No warranty or returns will be accepted. Payment MUST be received within 3 days of close of sale. Outdrive does not include a propeller.

Outdrive has been separated into 2 pieces and packed for shipping. First box 31H X 22L X 10W and weighs approximately 45lbs. Second contaner is 28L X 21H X 8W and weighs approximately 50lbs. Shipping method, location, speed, and costs is up to the buyer to determine and pay. Contact the shipper yourself for pricing. Do not use eBay's calculation as I have found it inaccurate for this type of item. Seller will be happy to work with the buyer to make shipping arrangements and delivery to shipper.

This outdrive is in really good condition. There not many original Mercruiser's left in this good a condition. This would be perfect for a restoration or a replacement. You won't be disappointed.

Please feel free to call if you have any questions. Jim at (301) 223- 9075


A look at Volvo future products

Wed, 15 Aug 2012

Volvo wants to derive economies of scale from a new front-wheel-drive architecture called SPA, for Scalable Platform Architecture. The redesigned XC90 crossover due in 2014 will be the first to use the architecture. SPA was designed for a new family of four-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines that Volvo will begin using on existing models next fall.

2012 Honda Civic: First detail, photo and video

Fri, 29 Jul 2011

2012 Honda Civic - suitably disguised If you think about Honda cars the first car that probably springs to mind is the Honda Civic because the Civic seems to have been around for ever. In fact, the 2012 Honda Civic will be the ninth generation of the Civic over nearly 40 years. The original Civic arrived in 1972 with all its Japanese build quality and reliability intact from the start, and it was something of a revelation for a motoring public that were still buying new Austin 1300s and the later model Humber Sceptres.

Renault Laguna Coupe concept

By Tim Pollard Motor Shows 10 September 2007 10:11 Renault Laguna Coupé Concept: the lowdown Critics of the new dull-looking new Laguna - and there have been a few - can seek solace in the new two-door coupé version unveiled today in Frankfurt. It's a far sleeker affair, although a concept. And we all know what happens to sexy concepts before they reach the high street.
