I'm repowering. I have the old style OMC 400 (also known as CC170 Pre 1979), from a 1977 Johnson 200 to a 1999 Merc 250 EFI. I'd like to keep the same control box and shift and thottle cables, Are there cable end adapters that'll connect these OMC cables to the Merc? Thanks

There is an electrical adapter, but the OMC throttle works in the opposite direction. Merc pulls, OMC pushes.
You can get the cable adapters for the morse 33c type cables, but the control won't work.

Teleflex did make a adaptor kit to convert those motor cable ends to Merc. I have two kits (1 needed for each cable). If you need them, PM me.
