Power trim for 1960 40hp Evinrude

[Dickinson]

Hi all I was wondering if any of you have seen anyone retrofit power trim to a 1960 - 1970 40 hp Evinrude? I have a perfectly good running motor, I'd just like to get some trim for this motor. Thanks for any help.

there's kits out there.
CMC make an aftermarket unit good for an older heavy motor- up to 130HP rating

I have a MinnKota unit that says it's good to 40HP, but it looks too light for an oldie. They were a cheaper unit, sold for around $400.

I thought OMC made a PTT unit for those motors. I have never seen one however.

they had an option on alot of pre mid 70s, like my '70 85 hp. its technically an add on, even though it came with it.
