Compatible Motors to 1982 70 hp

[MAGNUM21]

Alright so I need to know what year motors are compatible with a 1982 70 horsepower Evinrude long shaft. I am particularly interested in finding out what tilt trim unit I can use but since I'm here begging for your time I mine as well find out how much other stuff will fit as well. Forgive me if there is an easy way to find this information but I very unproductively wasted about 3 hours this morning on the internet without finding an obvious answer.:embarassed:

I like marine engine's website to look up parts and get part numbers. Look up your year engine, then look up previous years and later years comparing part numbers until they no longer match.

1978-1985 3 cyl motors have the best parts interchange. As far as a tilt and trim unit goes anything 1981 to about 1991 will work. And any tilt and trim unit from a 3/4/6 cylinder will work just make sure you get the relays.

Great info, thank you guys.

Is there a used parts forum around here?
