    Upgrade 1988 115 to 140

    I have been told that the 1988 1.6 liter 115 hp omc is the same motor as the 140. Is this true? They both have the same specs as far as bore and stroke. They both have the bubble back exhaust. Other than the carbs what is the difference and would it be worth it to upgrade my 115 to a 140?
