Default Classic 22 surface drive conversion

Spoiler
 
I’m building a classic 22 from the ground up and want to understand the approximate cost to install a surface drive, excluding the engine

thanks!

I guess I don’t know enough about all the brands- just learning. I would prefer a good to upper brand (Arneson)? I will probably be around 800-900 max power
