    You have some options:
    - the old style twin ram Mercury fits
    - as Fred mention.. the Pro 50 can be modified to fit You switch the lower yoke on the steering arm and make the two top bolt hole a bit larger
    One problem with these old outboards is taking them apart without breaking parts and it takes more time than you think.
    So the best option maybe to get an aftermarket add on trim system like a CMC.

    If by chance this is a long shaft model..any 70 hp Yamaha long shaft model power trim bolts right on.

    Thanks Guys

    Yes this is the long shaft version, so I'm now keen on the 70hp suggestion - not sure where it will fit in as this bracket seems quite full or are the 70's also on the outside? sorry for all the questions, I just have to weigh my options here and getting info is key....

    thanks again

    You replace the complete clamp bracket assembly. The 55 hp mid is almost exactly the same as the 90 Yamaha. So you can use 70, 90 or late model 55 Yamaha. The problem is taking the old parts off your motor.

    I did reply to your private messages. The two motors you have are different and I am surprised you got 6F0 parts and gaskets easily. Good for you. The exhausts are different. One is the single piece and the other 6F0 has a pipe and outer shell.
    The 6FO has different Pistons. The other one is much more common and similar to the newer Yamaha 55 parts.

    IF? Yours is an original 60de you already have the best model. Your motor has all the good parts. Please post pictures and port measurements. We have never seen the inside of an 6f1 powerhead. Thanks for posting.
