Nope.<br /><br />Any 140 from a 20 or 25" motor 1977.<br />Any 85 or 115 in 1977 from a 25" motor.<br />Any V4 crossflow 1978 and newer.<br /><br />We are talking powerheads here since thats what you asked about. Components (cranks and blocks) are another story.<br /><br />Good luck!

Very possible. Run the motor this weekend and recheck. We hope it works out for you.<br /><br />Good luck!
