    Hey guys, I've got a complete 1976 200HP Crossflow (200TL76S) Johnson motor with a bad piston. I found a 1979 235HP (235TL79A) rebuilt powerhead on Craigslist. I've tried to do some research to see if i can swap the powerhead from the 79' to the 76', and all I have been able to find out is that...
