thanks and to answer your question i really don't know i try to start the motor and the starter is bad plus a mechanic took a look and he told me the coils look bad and the clutch is stuck the bracket is in good condition this boat was use on fresh water the trim is in a OK condition to but i am planing on removing the bracket and add a platform i don't know if is worth fixing the old omc or just get a different motor
btw the motor is not lock and the mechanic told me the bottom is in perfect condition
have you guys try to put the omc motor on a different bracket and changing the steering
