Brand New Mercury Optimax 200

[ZanderDavid]

Hello all, hoping I may get some feed back here.

I am wondering if anyone has installed a new 2016-2019 Mercury Optimax 200 into any older Mercury M2 installed Sea Doo boats. I cant get a straight answer from Mercury or BPR and dealers are less than helpful.

Any feed back is apreciated

The splines on the crank shaft will not match up to the pinion gear shaft. I've always wondered if the pinion could be modified to accept a modern 4 stroke powerhead. It seems like any competent machine shop could do it.
