besides buying a whole outdrive and not wanting to spend $1K+ is there any other lower unit casing that will work? i have been able to obtain the correct gears and bearings but now just need a housing for it.

By the time you find a case & gears and have someone put it together,it will be cheaper just to find a good used one.

no i think your right. Im probably going to be buying that one in seattle and just call it a day.

New question: Is there a trick to trying to get these nuts off to separate the two pieces? they don't look rusty since they have been covered in paint for years but i just cant seem to get them off. Is heated needed you think?
