Every where I look they seem to be obsolete. Anybody know where I might be able to get my hands on one of these? I really dont want to put a re-threader kit in. Is there another engine with the same head possibly? IVe tried a guy in my area that has a HUGE selection of old outboards and he doesnt even seem to have one..

Look in the "Top Secret File", there is a list of salvage yards there, one of them should be able to help you out with a part or a cross reference for your part.

looking at marineengine.com....several years prior to your 1973 used a 381151..your year changes <naturally> to a 385790...the part no.'s for the crankcases change as well...I dunno..I'd check the part no.'s for the years after yours and get an idea of what years would work...the earlier ones may work as well, I just don't know enough about them to tell you they would
