I recently burned the #2 piston (again) on my 85 'Rude 90hp motor which I've yet been able to get back to the lake to check the WOT timing on each cylinder. In the interim, I'm exploring other options such as buying a good used 'Rude/Johnny for parts (powerhead primarily). I found a 1975 'Rude 115hp for a really good price ($150). Not sure if the motor is still available but if it is, I'm seriously contemplating buying the motor. However, there's no title for the motor. So I'm wondering, if I were to buy this 115hp 'Rude, could I remove the powerhead and put it on my 85 'Rude 90hp? If so, what kind of parts interchangeability (if there is such a word 
) is there between these two motors? The pictures I seen show the motor to be really clean and the guy claims "All parts are good and the engine works".
