Re: motor year by serial#?

thnx guys it is a 3 cyl, i was wondering if I could stick it on a procraft 1650v glass boat my other motor 90hp rude threw a piston and i am desparate to just get back on the water to fish I suppuse there is no way i would get on plane with this but i suppose i can just get around. also the 90 rude that is on there has tilt and trim and the old merc does not. The top mounting holes on the rude are slighter wider and offset than than the bottom ones, but on the merc they all look to be in-line, i was just wondering if i can mount this without drilling new holes in the transom?<br /><br /><br />thnx<br />mark
