I have a 76 evinrude 85hp it needs a total rebuild but I have been considering getting another power head instead. what years will work with my 1976
 
Easiest way for you to go about this question is to go into marine engine and get the part number for the powerhead base gasket. Armed with that you can search later 90hp or 115hp powerheads. Most should fit but......and this is a big one.....the shift linkage may force you to make changes to the intake manifold and possibly more changes. Not quite as easy on that particular year.
 
thanks I cross referenced all the parts numbers took a min but we're all good. btw since you always answer my random questions and seem to be the guy to ask what should I use as a substitute for omc adhesive m on the case halves when I seal them back up.
