I would think that could be an option. Does it have a Bravo drive? If it has an alpha I doubt it.

Don't see how. Unless it was a 'late' 87.

Just get the serial numbers from the engine and drive and that will answer your question.

No. The Bravo was released for the '88 model year. '87 would have been an Alpha. Also I believe the first 502 was 1990.

Back in the fall of '87, I had heard about this new drive from Mercruiser. Ordered a new '88 Sport 220 with the 454 Mag/ Bravo package got it May '88.

Thanks guys. Just doing a little research on my boat. Its an 87 with a 502 (Tyler Crocket built) with a Bravo. The Bravo drive serial # on it was 1990 model. I blew that drive on it last summer and have a 2012 new style bravo in it now
