I have an APBA propller mag some where with a pic of one.

I would really like to see that Chris. I am looking for some decal ideas.

hey Swamppanther,
was talkin to a dude thats got a bunch of CCC parts, and I have foundout that thare was a Factory Mod50 15", should have some pics soon of it.

I don't want to add any confusion but both mod 50's (fr19s &fr31m) were built to accomodate a 15" transom as well as the sst 60 or any fishing
motor known as a short shaft(omc) my omc racing model numbers don't
show a fr31s as ever being made but there is a loop charged 3 cyl. listed
built in 1975 with a model number of ft19s and I dont know the specs on
it, also my CCC is for a 15" transom, the only other large motors (omc)
made for a shorter transom (12") is the EFI V8 and the sst 100 of which
I owned one of the latter,anything any shorter than 12" would have to
be custom made, I hope this helps and good luck chasing that wild
goose!

so this is a 15" shaft? looks short, no?

**swamppanther** · 10-02-2005, 12:26 PM

Thats correct , but it does't hurt to keep digging, best way to find answers!
Fast Fred do you have a spare pivot shaft & yoke? call me 229 246 5937
Thanks

The FT is the motor with a shifting lower unit. The FR is the motor with a racing (direct drive, non-shifting) lower unit.
