I'd start at Marineengine.com. Who's doing the install? Who's ever doing the install may have a favorite place to buy. You may want to find a local supplier (100 miles) save on shipping, also if there are issues w/ the drive. Good luck

Oh, engine shafts/bearings should be inspected

NuWave marine. I just purchased a bravo 3x at 10am and it was at my house at 10am the next day. Call them and make sure they have a 1.81 at their warehouse or the show room. Free shipping also.
