I use an old auto pilot and the steering can be touchy...what length steering cable did you need for your conversion>? BTW nice bracket and motor and boat...Also I am wondering if my throtle cable and shifter cable will work with the johnson outboard and control unit>?
It has been 6 or7 years since I did it and 3 years since I sold it. So I have no memory of the sizes??

whats the tightest you think I can make the 90 degree turn with the steering cable>? that or I am considering making the linkage so that the cable can run straight down the bracket.
With a bracket all you need to do is run the cable threw the transom a bit to one side and it will go in the motor just fine, no need to get picky about it.
