YES! That one has the same 1/2 inch tilt pin so either the whole midsection can be bolted to your block OR the transom clamps any power tilt can bolt to your swivel yoke. I have one of those tilt/trim units and I really like the newer Mercury style transom clamps--way better than the 1988. Once I clean the corrosion and free up the T/T it will go on my 150, then on my 21 foot cuddy..

Be careful though: What is the exchange rate of $AU to $US? It may already be, or may get to be too expensive with bidding to be worth it

Hi Frank

Its an australian auction, and 'buy it now' is $250.00, or about $260.00USD. Is it worth that?? I have 5 days left on it.

Over here, a GOOD power tilt and trim assembly will sell for 300 and up. I did read the ad but do not remember if it came with associated wiring. Even without it, you can easily make a wire loom and relay set for almost nothing if you scavenge auto junkyards.

Personally, unlessIi have a pressing need for a T/T unit I stay away from ebay and try to use parts off a junker.

However, at 250AU, it doesn't sound like too bad a dea, land if you use paypal, you do have some measure of protection. I don't know how much because I have never needed to complain.
