Mercury only put the 454/330hp to the alpha drive for one year - 1986 - they learned that mistake real quick.

I have a pair TRS drives I'd like to sell. LH and RH. Low hour, not abused. They came off a 30' Larry Smith Scarab w/ 330 engines coupled to Merc Trans transmissions. Includes inner transom plates, gimball housings, They need fresh paint. I will crate and arrange shipping. I'm asking $2,600 for all. That's a really great price! steve [email protected] email and we can talk $$$'s and shipping. Thanks

Ive seen thru the years that yes, there were a few standoff boxes made for the TRS. I think Stelling made them but that is only a rumor. I think the ones I have seen are custom made one off parts.
