    I’ve been learning about these of the early 70s vintage with the much help from people here. These are interesting motors but many people would say they should be avoided, that the sweet spot is in the later 1970s. This is probably so unless you enjoy tinkering and scrounging. But you are into a later period entirely. If I were looking for another I’d place high priority on power tilt/trim. These motors are too big and heavy to wrestle up and down manually, and being able to adjust trim under way is very desirable.
