I'm looking for another engine for my boat which is a 1998 Fisher Bay 19 with a 25" transom. I'm finding a ton of 80's-2000's models 90 hp-150 hp but they're all 20" shafts. I know the OMC 25" shaft motors get the extra length from the mid section, unlike Mercury which uses a spacer between the mid section and the lower unit. My question is, was there ever a kit made for OMC engines, which allows the conversion of a short shaft to long shaft, without replacing the mid section? I guess what I'm asking is was there ever a spacer made with a longer drive shaft, as well as a shift linkage extension? Thank you in advance!
