Do tell, Denny...

Back to the repower, the stroked 250 (292) has got my fancy but First Mate Marine is having trouble calling me back...
Any input from the mechanical wizards on here, or your wize, wrench-wielding friends.

My understanding is that merc only produced the 200 hp Mercruiser configuration for a year, 1969, using the 292 w/MCM II drive - some bastardization of the sideways lifting elgin style lower er sumpin'. Can I mate an inline to an alpha or bravo drive, or am I stuck with the MC 1?

I'm finding a few ci 250 to 292 conversion threads but no real evidence of success. The guys selling these 292 blocks arent the most responsive ...
