We are starting to see used SHORT SHAFT 4 stroke motors come up for sale.

Here is an example

Here is a new one

There are also lots of 60 hp 4 stroke parts for sale for the same basic model.

QUESTION:
Can you make this 40 hp into a 60 hp by changing the bolt on electronics?

These would make a good T750 motor at a fair price and you would not need to change the decals for younger people.

Thanks Paul. I thought they were the same displacement, my mistake.
Same bore and stroke, but the 40 is 3 cylinders .

Wonder if you could do a double switch? Buy a used 60 long and a used 40 short. Mount the 60 on the short and the 40 on the long. Then re-sell the 40 long??
