Think I would rebuild the old one .. You are going to have to alter everything otherwise .. Shafts come in different diameters .. Lengths .. Props come in left hand and right hand as well as different pitches .. Engine mounts are never the same .. Could go on but i think you need to go back to the drawing board before you spend hours rushing around trying to picture if it will fit .. You could always fit an outboard .. or try one of the replacement specialists for info and then see if you can find a secondhand one .. They wont be happy though if you turn up latter looking for engine mounts etc .. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Welcome paul.
I sugest you move this post to the 'Wanted' section. There you will get more feedback.

In addition - let us know what make/model of engine you have just removed - for example, was it petrol - or diesel?

Regards
Donald

It will have tobe diesel the the old engine was removed previous to me purchasing the boat including shaft, prop,fuel tank etc.... Many of the warwicks were fitted with petter minni 6s which I beleive mine was, I have recently been offerd a 7hp bmw engine complete and in good condition I have time and enjoy the challenge of engineering /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
