OMC cobra outdrive

[sxr800uscgman]

I am not sure this the right place to ask this ?. But I have a OMC cobra outdrive hooked to a 3.0 130hp engine. I was wondering what all do i have to change if I want to put a 5.7 in the boat, can i use the same outdrive or do i have to get a different one. Thank You

new engine front mounts, different drive gear ratio

so everything will bolt up just have to get a new front mount. will the different gear ratio be bad or will it not matter

you will have to fabricate(fiberglass work) the front mounts to the stringers,outdrive ratio will not work with a v8
