I asked earilier in thread but got no reply about the straight front

[Fast Fred]

thinkin a pro 50 yamaha braket works, yes it will. did buy new 15" 70hp mids from Hydrotec,may be a used one to be had, 300 buck was a long time ago, like 10years.
i do have a straight moda, but she is not for sale, did see them pics, is there a stamped coin in the top of the moda?

No theres none their im sure its a stock block that they put the FT goodies on it
I have a pro50 short with trim i built it from factory parts a few yrs ago
Also have a few trim brackets may sell if anyone is req one

Well Calhoun Marine is only doing Mercury outboards at this time. Still on the look out for someone that can cut a Yamaha 70 hp mid down to a 15". I have a 20" mid section with a F50 4-stroke lower unit also 20" that will need to be cut down. Using a Pro50 tilt trim unit. Building on a powerhead at the moment.

Fast Fred what about some FT pistons and rods .would you have any/know where I can acquire them?

[Fast Fred]

seaway would have new rods and one ring pistons.

a short shaft 70hp yamaha bolts right up to a pro50 braket

Hey Fast Fred, is the long shaft pro 50 bracket longer or different than a short shaft? If so, what is the mod you have to perform to make it fit on a Stinger?
