[QUOTE="Buckethead, post: 428268, member: 9470"] Will a powerhead from a 1965 50 hp Mercury work on a 1983 50 hp Mercury? The shaft and splines match and will connect. I was told by a local outboard mechanic that it will work if the shaft and splines match. Does anyone know of any other reason why it won't work? I know Mercury made a lot of design changes during that 18 years but I'm just wondering if they can swap. Any input would be great, thanks. [/QUOTE]
