Good morning,
I recently purchased a 1978 Checkmate Predictor as a project. It had the original 1977 115hp Evinrude. The motor has a broken ring land on one of the cylinders.
I just bought a 1991 Evinrude 90 HP to replace the 115 because I felt like it would be more work and expense to rebuild as opposed to update to a slightly newer motor.
My question is what parts interchange between a 1977 115hp and a 1991 90hp? Lower unit? Ignition parts? How about the impeller? I have a brand new impeller kit for the 115? I’m tying to decide if I should keep the 115 for parts or sell it for parts.
What do you folks think?
