The SP-C is an AQ series drive, and will lend itself to the Borg Warner components.
With B/W components, you would be able to adapt most any engine that is B/W capable.
You would need a B/W flywheel cover for the new engine.
You would then need a B/W -slash- Volvo Penta PDS adapter housing.
The issues re; doing this;
..... the house boat hull is a displacement hull, and is not designed for much speed.
..... the lower drive unit is geared for the small 4 cylinder engine (2.15:1)
..... in order to install a different lower gear unit, the hull would need to be out of the water.
..... in order to install the B/W -slash- Volvo Penta PDS adapter housing, the hull would need to be out of the water.
..... the single exhaust down tube would need to be changed if a V engine is installed.
..... the exhaust down tube replacement requires the hull to be out of the water.
