Yes.<br /><br />But not without a ton of adaptation. The biggest hurdle would be to get the driveshaft to fit into the crankshaft. That's one of very many hurdles that would make it impossible from a Practical standpoint. You would have an easier time with a newer Force that used the Force powerhead mated to a newer style Merc lower end.
