How bad is it cracked?? Maybe it can be welded.

Is that a tower of power?

Can you post a photo. I have a few old lower units kicking around, might have what you want.

Sleded, check out "Twin City Outboards". They are in Minnisota, but they ship world wide. They deal in old antique and late model outboards. Hope this helps ya! Paul.

I've got an old Johnson 75HP Seahorse with a bad lower end if anyone wants it.

 

Also, after talking to my mechanic today I have a 1984 90HP Johnson that needs a rebuild as one of the pistons is screwed . He says it will be about $2200 - $2600 for the rebuild - does this seem reasonable???

[John Bacon]

I am not sure if it is reasonable in terms of a fair price to pay for the work involved; but, couldn't you buy a 20+ year old motor for less than that?

[Uncle Buck]

guys, Sleded's motor is a 10HP or a 9.8 or 9.9...

 

not 100HP... Merc 100 is the model #

It weighs as much as a 100hp tho!

What is wrong with old unit?

Can it be repaired?

Are the gears and bearings ok?

If so we could just change the case.
