howdy folks. im looking to add a 1967 6hp evinrude to my boat as a kicker motor. i have a 74 johnson 115 for the main engine and im looking to connect the steering, shifter and throttle if possible. it looks like there is a spot for a steering connector on the front of the 6 horse engine that looks like a 1/4 turn connector or camlock. the shift lever also has this connector on it. the throttle looks like there is a spot for a bracket and then a peg for a cable on the tiller arm.

can anyone point me in the direction to find the linkages that i might need for this?

i appreciate anyones help.

thanks

here is what I have on my 76' Starcraft with 55hp evinrude and 5.5 kicker(61')
I added second control, type 400 cables and the clips and end pcs you see in the pics.

this is the connectors apart from the cables.... I may be wrong but hard if not impossible to run both motors from same control box although dual control units are out there. On mine though it was not possible. The steering kit is sold here oo Iboats, and they may sell the connector kits too. The control box, ebay.

steering kit....Iboats has others as well. Check them on the other connectors as well, support them when possible. Their cables are very competitive as well.
