Ayuh,..... Have ya got the take-out motor, Complete,..?? Are all the accessories Good,..??

Are ya swappin' Long Blocks, or Bobtail motors,..??

If yer swappin' Long Blocks, 'n usin' the old accessories, a 1990 to current production pretty much,...

Bobtail motors, 'bout anything that runs can be dropped in, 'n hooked up,....

I guess it's more of a get it and see. he was concerned about electronics, motor mounts, linkage, gimble, outdrive to a earlier year motor like the bayliner 140 '89 I found..
Thanks Bondo
