      Isn’t it great when a plan comes together.

        Ok , starting with the wiring, hard wire a harness into your motor. The expensive harness, with plug, will do you no good anyways, as you do not have a lower pan which will accept the plug, and motor side harness. Simply drill a hole in the lower cowl, and run the freshly made harness in. You will then need a solenoid box, with solenoid, and then make some wiring from solenoid box to the key switch/start button plate. Ill post some wiring diagrams here for you.

        As you know, you will need the flywheel, starter, bracket. Members on here can help. Where are you located geographically?

        The remote steering/shifting/throttle is the easy part. If you have the remote controls, and cables, you simply clip them onto the motor. Does your motor have the SS clip, on either side, to accept the ends of the cables?

        I will send you a private message with my email address. I can send you a manual, and wiring diagram to help.

        Good morning, I am new to this board, I recently purchased a 1957 Johnson 35 hp Electric start. I saw that you have a diaphragm for wiring it remotely. I was hoping you could share it with me, I am a beginner and I want to learn, so please bare with me. Thank you in advance for any information that you share.
