Just ruined a piston and cyl. wall on my 1956 5hp M/W motor. Will anything interchange with the original as the lower unit is in perfect condition or does anyone have any idea where I might find a power head for it?

Model # GG9002B Ser.# 65x63939B FNR Gearshift

Re: what power head will work

First, you need to identify which 1956 5hp motor you have. There were two very different kinds, "Standard" and "Deluxe". The standard was direct drive, the deluxe had full FNR gearshift. Either way, they were quite popular and plentiful and built under a bunch of different brand names. Gale Products Division of OMC was the builder. Post a want ad at the antique outboard clubs Webvertize pages. It's free. Can't get a better deal than that. The Antique Outboard Motor Club Website - AOMCI.org
