Is it possible to convert this outboard to power tilt/trim? If so, is there a kit or would I just need to gather parts (motor, solenoid, etc) and fab something up to work?

I tried searching (not very hard because I'm out of patience today) so please don't shoot me :D

You mean like the one in the attached pic? Yup it is possible, this was done by a friend of mine.

If you'll send me a private message with your e-mail address listed, I'll forward it to him and I'm sure he won't mind filling you in on the details.

He's running this 76-Cubic-Inch F.G.S. 850 on a G-3 if I recall and it pushes it along quite nicely!

Cheers..........ed
