    Im reading this artical from www.outboard-boat-motor-repair.com and was wondering if anyone has done this? Does it affect performance? Is it safe for the engine?

    Many iboaters have made that conversion, Gwichers. Instructions are in the Engine FAQs forum.

    Here are some other links too. It shouldn't affect performance at all. The second link is a vid that can walk you through either method. Keep us posted. Good luck.

    Thanks again. I'm waiting for all my parts. One big disadvantage of being in Alaska. Getting ready to paint though and also desided to rebuild the extra/ original powerhead.
