mercury generally used four systems from 35-90HP.
From 1996-2010 they used a light duty system designed for 30-50HP
From 1987-2010 they used a medium duty system designed for 0-120HP and outfitted with 60-120HP pressure springs
From 1987-1995 they used a medium duty system designed for 0-120HP and outfitted with 30-60HP pressure springs
From 1987-200x they used a pressurized assist cylinder with hydraulic lock on 30-90HP (aka manual assist)
The only way your existing mercury power trim will work over 50HP is if you have the 1987-1995 system and rebuild it with new springs.

Thanks. The serial # is 0b225039. Ive searched with no success to find any specifications. Would you have a recommendation of where or who might I contact for a "rebuild" kit to upgrade if needed?
