Add tilt and trim to 1969 85hp Evinrude?

[68glasspar]

Is it possible to swap everything from engine pivot thru mounting bracket from a newer model to have tilt and trim? or at least tilt?

You can actually buy outboards now that come with power t&t as standard, and they are available used too .
I think you would save yourself a bunch of stress , time and money buying another motor with power t&t

If you want to add Power Trim to a 1969 Evinrude, a C&C is pretty much the only way to do so, except for doing what Mc Tool suggested

I'm not interested that option

Those are your Options. There were a lot of Changes made to the Transom Bracket, Swivel, Midsections and Motor Mounts between 1969 and 1973, when the First Gen of Power Trim was offered, and even more changes happened by the time the 2nd Gen of Power Trim was introduced in 77 on the 140hp and in 78 on the 115 and 85hp.
Power Tilt was offered for the engine in 1969, but being 57 yrs old, it might be hard to find Parts, let alone NOS at a Dealer

Are any other mid sections and transom mounts transferable to the 1969 engine? I looked at parts diagrams and don't see anything with tilt until the 1977 models

???---FACT FOR YOU---Power tilt was available as an option for V-4 beginning in about 1962.

However pre69 V4s Transom Brackets were quite a bit Different than those of the Post 68 engines, and while there was similarities in the Tilt Systems, I wasn't going to state they were interchangeable
