have been looking high and low for a powerhead for my 56 johnson 5.5, made a call to gentleman to inquire about a possible unit. this guy .....and what a great person, has close to 150 motors!....all runners! even mentioned one that has a knob on the flywheel to start it??? he is also restoring over 100 pressure tanks, and even looking into having the graphics screen printed on them, like they were done from new! i cant wait to make the 4 hour drive , just to walk through his shop!! ( probably the wrong forum for this post, but just had to mention it)

here are a few pics (not taken by me) of some of the older? motors in this collection.
what is the one with the rudder "like" steering?
(i hope i can get a chance to make the drive to see all the motors before winter sets in! :) )
