What ever happened to the Alpha SS drive
I understand that Merc made this drive from 85-89. You almost never hear about them anymore. Were they any stronger than an Alpha 1 and are there any used ones out there?

They are awesome drives!! It is a shame Merc stopped producing them. They are very nice on smaller boats with high revving small blocks. They also have a very efficient case with a low water pick-up!

I had Konrad go through my drive a while back and they said that they were no longer producing the Omega SS. They were keeping the remaining parts for warrenty replacement stock.

Re: What ever happened to the Alpha SS drive
Are you looking to buy one? I sold mine to a guy a couple of years ago and he can't use it (his x dimension was already raised so high the prop wasn't in the water when he turned). Wanted me to buy it back. It might still be available.
