This fit perfect.
motor does NOT need to be removed to install and takes about 1-2 hours for cable and helm replacement.
good luck all.

Thanks for sharing this info.
You are correct, it is practical to leave the engine on and just loosen it so that you can angle it off the transom enough to remove the cable.
Many owners also select the Safe-T-II kit with 3 turns, lock-to-lock.

I am in the middle of a restoration on my 1992. Let me know if you have any questions.
