86 50hp force and 79 45hp chry same engine?

[dkonrai]

i have a 1986, force 50hp. wondering if a 79, chrysler 45 are the same motors? i have a chance of buying one complete for 160 bucks, but dont know if they are the same motors? looks the same, same coils, and covers.
trying to locate coils, and the bolt that holds the motor up. figured it was cheaper to pick up a parts motor. the motor in question, the owner tells me it doesnt have spark.
thanks '
