Location: Medford, WI | Does anyone know the years and sizes of motors that are "compatible" with each other? I have an '88 Evinrude 40hp longshaft with a bad lower unit. Chance to pick up an early '80's Evinrude 35hp very local for cheap.
Just wondering if anybody could help to let me know if parts would be interchangeable.
Thanks in advance, Jake |

My gut instinct says they will not match. I believe the 35 was a motor size all on it's own based on the same design as the 25 hp series. I do not believe the foot will be the same...
