The shift cables are different, as well as the wiring harness. You are better off swapping out the box. There are many of these old control boxes still up for sale..check out ebay. Just decide if you need the box with the trim switch in the handle or not.

You may use Morse/Teleflex C3 cables and end-piece conversions.
Not my favorite solution, but works.
