    Well, any of the OMC two lever controls will work just fine. So, I would look for a used two lever box, that has not seen salt water use. The length of the cables is another story. There is a formula to measure (roughly) for newer engines where both cables enter the motor pan on its stbd side…Your engine has connections on both sides of the stern bracket, so your throttle cable may need to be a foot longer than your shift cable. The control box you find might just have cables already installed, perhaps the length of the cables is still visible on the casings, you can use the probable excess length of these cables to determine the proper lengths you need….
