My Engine <br /><br />1981 V225<br /><br />Available Lower Unit:<br /> <br />1998 200hp Lower unit is a 20" lower unit that is available from a boat that caught on fire.<br /><br />I'm not even sure if this lower unit will bolt up to my engine :/ <br /><br />Should I just look for a unit with a 25" . . . which years will fit my old beast?
you will pretty much be putting your powerhead on that motors midsection if it will bolt up .I would try my luck putting the 98 200 back together .I'm putting a burnt one back together right now . Mercury thinks their wiring is made of gold .Got about a grand in all new electrical parts ignition everything.
