friend of mine has this motor and needs to convert it to a shorter shaft. Looking at the motor with him, it looks easy to convert. Take out 5" spacer and water tube extension. Replace shift rod and drive shaft with one made for a 20" motor. Found the shift rod on ebay, but WHERE IN THE HELL CAN I GET A DRIVE SHAFT???? looked everywhere, these things do not exist. Same part number from 1980 - 1994 but not available anywhere. Any ideas or help on where to find one would be greatly apreciated.
