Hey guys,

I have this boat and was wondering if you can put a trim and tilt in this engine or is it not possible?

My 79 85 hp engine has factory power trim. You can see the factory parts list, including the trim system at the factory parts website: epc.brp.com The unit pictured is an early 3-wire system. It's obsolete, but there are many used units available. You could consider a newer 2-wire system, but you'd need to change the outer exhaust cover, as the newer trim box bolts to it.

Look at the Top Secret Files at the beginning of this forum and check salvage yards.
