I have two motors that I picked up for parts. One is an 84 25hp and the other is a 74 35hp.
The 35 has the old school round water intakes and the 25 has the square plastic screens. The lower on the 35 froze and not only split the case(Fixable) but it shoved the bearing carrier so hard it sheared off the groove for the oring that keeps the gears in place.
The 25hp gear case looks like it will bolt up fine with the only difference being the shift rod configuration.
So my question is can I make a frankenmotor by combining the 35hp powerhead and mid section with the 25hp lower unit?
