    Early EZ Shift outdrive questions

    also now that I have those 6 bolts out should the unit be free? seems secured still. the donor boat was rotted and had a lot of corrosion on the transom bolts, I got all of them out minus the one bolt =/. the boat I am trying to get back together is pretty solid all things considered.

    Early EZ Shift outdrive questions

    I think replacing with newer engine and setup would probably be the easiest route, but having a great running 1972 120 mercruiser motor makes me want to attempt finding a way to convert it to a newer outdrive. is there a way to see what possible transom plate / gimbal and outdrive would bolt up?
