I have an '80 35 evinrude long shaft that was given to me because it overheated (bad impeller) and now has no compression in either hole.
Tonight a buddy offered me an '87 30 johnson short shaft for $200
Are the powerheads interchangeble and is the difference in hp just the way they were rated (crank vs. prop hp) ?
For the price I'm definately picking up the '87 but now I'm debating making a long shaft out of the '87 or rebuilding the '80 and having two motors???
