I have a 1994 Honda BF45 4 Stroke outboard with a crack in the lower unit round portion near the propeller. <br /><br />I have an offer of a 2000 Honda 40HP engine that has a blown powerhead but is otherwise OK.<br /><br />Does anyone know if that lower unit (2000/40HP) will fit my engine (1994/45HP) ??<br /><br />Honda stopped making 35/45 HP engines in 1995 or 1996 and began their current series of 40/50 HP engines. <br /><br />Any help would be appreciated?
