Ok so what I see is that you have a 25" motor/seadrive set up. I sold mine about 8 months ago that was a 20' motor/seadrive set up. so you are trying to put a 20" motor on a seadrive that is set up for 25" motor,it had the shorter 4 bolt pivot piece on it. you either have to get that 4 bolt pivot piece on the seadrive in a 20" or you have to swap out power heads off your other motor to the one you have pictured. Im still kinda confused, your verbage kind of jumps around making it confusing. hopefully we are on the right track now. where are you located?

I think I FINALLY understand.... you are absolutely wanting to get rid of the seadrive and go to a bracket but you want to convert the 20" motor to 25" with parts from the seadrive unit..... correct?

that won't get the powerhead any further from the prop which must be in the water... will still be prone to swamping......



WHY not just KEEP the seadrive and put the powerhead on it??

There is some parts witch need to be replace in the bracket of the cea drive like the pump and the hoses one of the cilinders looks like is about to go it has a small leak lol and most important I don't like the bracket

What I was thinking is installing the 20" on a new bracket the omc bracket is to old and parts are hard to get I will like something I can get easy
