I have a mercury 2 stroke outboard that was made in the early 60's and I'm not sure of the hp.The color is white.When I bought it it had a 9.8 hp sticker on the cowl.I believe it's a long shaft.The serial number is 1581225 on the lower housing.The part that goes around the base of the motor which I call a pan.It's black in color and it has a 6 hp sticker on it.I've been trying to get info by using the serial number.That number tells me that it's a 1963 merc 60 6hp.I wanted to check the engine block for identification and found a part number on cylinder part of the block.Its 837-1903 with a 1903A description number for the whole engine block.I found a block on ebay that had that number on the engine block.The description said it was a mercury 110 11 hp.Were the engines interchangeable with different models?I also looked at the bolts that are for mounting the motor to the lower housing and they were rusted and don't look original.Do I have a pieced together outboard?The cylinder block part number 837-1903 and the 1903A numbers are the only info i have for the engine.Could someone help me out and identify what hp motor I have?
