looking for motor for old bruno running gear also ... CHEAP thanks
The 375 hp Deere that was removed for the repower we just did is for sale up at Marine Systems in Bass Harbor Maine. I am pretty sure that it is still there with a reverse gear. Not sure how much the customer wants but it is a running take out.

thank you that might work out !
but what do i want a 2 /1 or 11/2 to 1 with that? he might just sell motor. thanks a lot:D

I'll ask this for you.

Provide some info on the boat you are repowering. Size, weight, prop, what shaft diameter you have and how you are goinf to use the boat?

The guy has a 2:1 gear for sale too. Will that work for your boat?

If not, what gear are you looking for?

I assume there are a few gears out there for sale.

Anybody here got a 2 to 1 w/ that power? I swing a 26 square w/ that engine and a 2.5 to 1. But mine's not a Bruno and I know they are quite limited for diameter w/o making some changes.

Chasintail,you will not be able to use a 2.5 to 1 gear...a 35 bruno doesnt have enough clearance to swing a big wheel...plus your shaft is to small...the seller of the motor also has a 1.75 inch shaft for sale....that would be better with the 2 to 1 gear

If you can find a 507a 2to1 with a cat bell housing....he will trade the gear and you can have the whole package
