If you are running this with a Mercruiser alpha drive, it would be a lot less screwing around if you remodel your outdrive to turn L.H. ?? Or even run them both R.H. if you have power steering on it as I am sure you do, you wont have much of a torque problem anyway. Good luck

not uncommon, my gidson is that way...just rebuilt my port V-drive, and used a seperate mounted BW 72c and you cannot convert the 71 or 72c's to change the rotation...and the v-drives don't care..they are gear to gear...you just swap the vent vs dipstick for whichever rotation that one is running
