115 Fast Strike. Difference in 95-2000 and 2001-2007

[Fishbum]

Anyone help me with info on 115 Fast Strike info?
have a 2002 needs powerhead. Found a 1998 used,
have seen in catalog Where they are listed 1995-2000
and 2001-2007 ( rebuilt powerhead). Thanks

They changed the cowling design and the shift bracket moved up..thats why the shift rod is .500 longer on later models

Ok thanks. For me the shift rod is no issue
using jet drive but have not been able to tell if powerhead to mid will match up?
if they matched might work?
