Will my '79 150 HP Johnson accept a dual control unit.
This will be a work boat and I like the look of the dual control and was wondering if this engine will accept a dual control unit?

Any input appreciated.

Now that I've been somewhat educated on this site. What I'm really wondering is, will my '79 150HP Johnson accept a 33C Cable for me to use a Throttle/Shift control like this?

Yes, it will work but, you might have to change cables and remember you will also have to move the ignition switch, cold start/choke, kill switch and all wires.

Oh? move those wires on the motor itself?

As I'm going to be removing the existing controls from the existing console, if my budget allows, I think I'll give it a try.
