40 hp force powerhead interchange info.

[bt93]

i purchased a 1998 force 40 hp outboard that doesn't run, i also purchased a 93 force 40 hp with a bad lower end. Will the powerhead from the 93 work on the 98?

I believe there were changes to the adaptor plates between the powerhead and the midsection. Best thing to do is to slowly take them off and compare.
Don't forget to check the driveshaft size and number of splines.
