If you don't know what you need to connect them, then it is very likely that you will not properly install them. If the engines are not aligned properly, you'll ruin the couplers. If you don't have a bell housing, you can't even bolt the engine to the inner transom assembly. It needs to be bolted with specific springs and washers.

you need to go to a shop that does outdrive-engine work and see a set-up uninstalled from the boat. the boatyards where customers can do their own work will be a better bet for getting help-information.

My Bravo 1 is connected with the triagular shapes #20 with the bell housing to cover all the rotating parts (flywheel and coupler) behind the motor. The bellousing also mounts to the transom plate....

Lsten to Griff, you guys aren't helping him even if he's able to look at the pictures to determine what parts he needs and manages to install them in the proper order he still needs to have them aligned properly or failure will occur quickly.

I agree he needs competen help/advice to install the motor. But, he also needs to buy the parts and the more time he has to shop the cheaper he will be able to get them!

Yes I would like to see the pictures Port Monster. Please send them to [email protected]. I think im going to gather these parts that I need and try to find someone in Oklahoma that could help me put the engines in for a small fee. Or maybe just pay someone to put them in since I have no experience with this.I want to be on the water next summer and don't need to screw something up and delay the party! Let me know if anyone knows someone in Oklahoma that knows how to install these properly.
