Im looking into buying a 1978 evinrude 25hp but i need to extend it to 20". Anyone know where to get one? I looked on eBay and found the 5" extension but need the waterlines and shift shaft.

In theory the kit is available from dealers although not direct from shop.Evinrude.com as part number 389111.
The price is not given but the gearcase extension on its own is $209, a standard drive shaft is $298 so I guess the longer one will be more. The shift rod is nearly $73 the water tube $23 an extra long gearcase to exhaust housing stud is $32. On goes the list with a number of minor parts ranging from below $2 to over $10.

I reckon all the parts could come to around $700. It may be more sensible to look out for an engine with a longshaft.

I think I would be looking for a long shaft parts engine on eBay or CL or I would go to www.tcoutboard.com and price the parts used.
