hey y'all,
names zack, i was directed to yall for some help trying to breath new life into my motor so here we go...
i have a 72 johnson 50hp 2 cyl, i am trying to find a rebuild kit for it, but anything i have found is for 81 and up.
now here is the deal, it is currently running, with a little trouble to get going, but once she is warm she'll eat. i would like to keep her running but if i cannot get a rebuild kit, im not sinking money in the motor. BUT i have been told i can swap the powerhead and to look for 80-88 powerhead. secondly, i have been told that i can swap over some 60hp carbs to get some more out of her as well.....
so here is where i am at, if i can get an actual '72 50hp rebuild kit, where is it lol and if i am better with power head swap, what years should i look at.
thanks for your help yall.
zack.
