Re: 1974 90 hp evinrude
I believe the 85 & later the 90 are probably the same V4 block and should weigh about the same. I'm having my boat hull redone including the transom and hope to replace the 1974 motor with an etec 75 or 90. These motors are both 320 lbs and should do okay on the boat.
The boat is stick steering and for safety reasons I believe I will also have hydraulic steering included in the upgrade.
Thanks so much for you weight information on the 1974 85 horse
