[QUOTE="Bart, post: 440270, member: 22764"] I believe that power head off of an old Evinrude/Johnson 1956 15 HP and 57 and later 18 HP will fit. It looks like they have the same block with just different bore. You will be gaining HP plus you will have roller bearings in the crankshaft and rods instead of the flat bearings the 12 HP used. I have a 1957 Sea King (made by Gale) 12 HP that should be the same as yours. Mine runs good but if I come across a power head I will be making the swap. [/QUOTE]
