1984 115 Evinrude with spare parts motor..trade for 70hp

[Bill]

I got this motor a few months back.. it was stored in a garage for the past few years and prior to that it was used on a bowrider lake boat that was trailered. the motor has 125psi on all 4 cylinders..I converted it to a pulse fuel pump and got rid of the VRO set up..It comes with a spare parts motor that sank but has a good lower unit etc...Also comes with controls and throttle cables.I just am putting it up for trade for a good running 70 hp..

Is this a rebuild? And what is the price.

 

[Bill]

No not a rebuild its all original except for the paint.. I stripped it, primed, and gave it 4 coats of OMC paint.. I really dont want to sell it, just rather trade for a 70.. if I dont get a 70 I dont want to sell it.. I just want to reduce the transom weight because my scuppers are so close to the water line.. its only a 60-70lb difference but Ill take it as I think the motor weight was a cause to my boat deciding to turtle.

If you could get a hold of a 70hp Yamaha it is is even lighter (223#) vs an OMC (250#). Tough to find one though.
