    Yes, you can do that. I have a 1967 folding motor and I swapped in a powerhead from a standard from 1965 and it works great… you just need to cary over the adapter plate from the 1967. Adapter is OMC 0382072. If you want an external tank, you’ll want to look at motors from the mid 60s vs the late 50s to get motors with the correct openings cast in . I’m not sure when the change happened.
