    '81 60 s'horse impeller

    G'day all. Wondering if replacing the impeller in a 1981 60hp seahorse is much the same as on a 1976 15hp. A mate in another city wants to have a crack at his newly acquired 60 and if it is much the same I should be able to help him out by phone if he gets stuck at all. Thanks for any advice.
