    Default SST60 - Stinger powerhead/adapter/tower question

    Is it possible to put a SSt 60 Powerhead and adapter plate on a Stinger short shaft mid section. Looking at different options for more power. Thx,

    An even better idea is to put the subject/question in the title of your thread rather than random punctuation marks.
    Since 1925, about 150 different racing outboards have been made.

    On the powerhead swap you'll need to ream out through holes - the 56.6 uses 3/8" studs instead of the 5/16" used on 49.9's.

    Tim, I understand I think what you are saying, but I am looking at using the SST 60 P-Head, adapter plate, with the SST 60 Tuner. Sorry if I am not explaining the right way or being confusing...

    as Tim says you will need to drill out your exhaust housing for the larger studs.
