Yes, It's only rubber. It also has a tendency to loose it's ability to seal in the housing(develops a memory as well as getting rigid). I've seen them so hard and brittle that they would break into pieces. Bill |

And - if you want to go for a 55 hp it will bolt right on! |

About the 55 hp.What exactly did you mean?That the water pump from a 55 will fit on the 35? |

Well yes- but the real news is the entire power head from a 55 hp will bolt right on that engine in place of the 35. No changes as long as they have the same ignition. |

All it has to have to fit is the 2 piece lower unit. Chrysler used the same engine block for the 35/45/55 hp powerhead. They changed the ignition and carb over the years, but if it would match the base gasket, it would work. |
