I have a 1999 S200txrx outboard that through a rod and cracked the block earlier this summer. We searched for a while and finally figured undo and just received a refurbished power head for my motor.
During assembly the mechanic discovered the original fly wheel doesn't fit for on the crankshaft. We are having trouble getting the guys on the phone to confirm what they put in the block.
It is my understanding according to the shop that this block can be built as a 225 or 250 as determined by the internal parts. We haven't measured the crank to confirm yet. They believe and are trying to confirm ( part of why I'm here looking for a second opinion. ) that if it is the crank for a 225 or 250 that the carb and exaust can be adjusted to allow the higher horsepower. As well as the correct flywheel.
Wondering if any of this is true or if anyone has had experience with this situation.
Thanks in advance.
