Hello all, I'm looking to find out if anyone knows where or how I can retrofit power trim to my late 60's to early 70's evinrude lark lll motor. Thanks for your help!

A CMC unit would be the way to go. Expensive but they are good units. And if you ever get a newer motor that already has PT&T you can sell the CMC unit for close to what you paid for it.

neat, looks like a lot of work.

I figured that if I am not racing, I could make a series of adjustment holes instead of the fully-adjustable open slots and save myself some of that work. Getting older and smarter, hopefully!
