The drive is indeed an Alpha 1 generation one. the 1.98R is most likely the gear ratio for the upper unit. ANY R/MR/Alpha 1 gen 1 lower will bolt to your upper housing without modification. If you shop around you should be able to get a used one for 500.00 or less. Just rebuild the water pump before installing. If you looking to save money, this is very much a do it yourself job. http://www.sterndrive.cc They sell complete units for $1195.00 and lowers for $695. These prices are for NEW units, no exchange. No water pump rebuild necessary. I have a complete unit on my boat, but because of the lack of hours, I cannot comment on their longevity.
