I still believe that the 280 would bolt right up to your transom mount and everything like cables, boots, lift motor and ect. should work. So if you could find a deal on either a 270 or 280, I think you'd be OK. here

I've been told that you can run a bigger prop on the 280's, and I just think they are a slightly better design as well. I've been rounding up parts to convert my 250 over to a 280 when I get the new engine project off the ground.
They evidently made the 280's up into at least the mid 1980's because I have seen them on some other brands of boats from as late as 1986. [links]
I believe that mechanically, the 270 and 280 are just about the same thing. The one difference I do see on a 280 over a 270 is the exhaust port. On the 270, you have the combo, exhaust post/trim fin to help correct the steering. here
For parts, I usually buy genuine Volvo parts from a local dealer, but there are sources on the net or even NAPA stores sell Sierra brand aftermarket parts.

To be honest with myself I know this boat would be a project and I am a project guy. I have my whole life bought things somebody else was tired of or could not deal with and turned them into something of value eventually getting my use out of them and selling them for more than what I had into them. I would rather haul something apart and go right through it so I know right where I am on the day of launch. I would be a fool to think I am going to buy a $1400 boat that size and have it in the water in a week. more
So, one of the boats I have looked at is a 1971 Grady White Chesapeake. It has the 270 outdrive replaced with a rebuilt unit a year ago. The console is recent and has a few nice accessories like a bimini and a cover. The major problem with the boat according to the owner is the wiring. Saw the boat, looks good and yes Sparky got in there and and did his version of wiring. I am a master auto tech retired and to me it just looked like it needed to be cleaned up by someone who new what they were doing. I have checked the deck, stringers and no water in any of the fluids. The boat is $1400 which at the moment I have no problem with. The owner says the motor runs good and has agreed to have me come back and spend some time to get her running. The issue I am having is the Volvo Penta AQ170 inline 6 engine. I guess if I saw it run and determined it was sound I could get some use out of it. I am pretty resourceful but parts are scarce an expensive for this particular motor. These guys are trying to get 200 for a USED water pump on Ebay! One thought I had was to look for a whole donor boat or engine and drive system that would be an update maybe same or larger in horse power with trim. more

I can tell you that the AQ151 is a 2.5 liter single overhead cam 8 valve 4 cylinder. It has the 531 head casting, which is the same head casting used some Volvos in the European market select years. Superior casting than the 160 and 398 (these will be on AQ131 engines). It's a "redblock" whose same basic design went from the early 1960s through the mid-90s. Irv Gordon has an earlier engine from the series with over 2 million miles on it. here
The closest kin to it would be the B230 automotive engine.. Which derived from the B23, which derived from the B21, which derived from the pushrod B20, which came from the B18, then the B16. It's basically the final step in the redblock evolution before Volvo switched to all DOHC and alloy blocks. [links]
