Does your 40hp have WME-53 or WME-92 carbs on it now..?
With all the blown up 60hp Mercury's out there, why not just by a complete front half and rebuild the carbs yourself? That way you get all the carb linkages, the right airbox (attenuator), primer solenoid w/fuel lines to show routing to duplicate, and reedblocks... All for pennies on the dollar...
Check with Outboard Recycle in Alabama...

They may have core powerheads with broken cranks and wrecked blocks and might sell you a complete 60hp front half for cheap.
Good luck.
