    Ok, I’ll look for a pre 1970 6 to 9.8hp donor.
    The gearcase looks good, and the compression is an even 130 lbs per cylinder. It’s a fresh water motor in nice condition except for the stator.
    Does anyone know how early a year I should look for? Black motors only??

    Thanks for the replies!
