I'm trying to find a small center console to put my '73 40 hp on which means converting it to cables and controls. First off, where can I find the control box and cables that will work for this engine? It's not listed on the shop.evinrude site. Also, it did not come with a tiller handle. Just incase I wanted to go back with a tiller, where would one find a tiller arm as that is also not listed on the parts diagram?

One more question is about steering. All the cables look easy enough to hook up, but is there a certian system I need for the steering to convert it? Thanks in advance.

craigslist, ebay.
... any of the standard morse controls, for center console (top mount) .
Order cables to fit the boat length.
Tillers are found on ebay or the antique outboard society, they have a classified section. Google it.
