You can use a Morse MT-2 or later Morse MT-3 with any brand 90 HP engine.

I strongly recommend use of new Domitar Sea Star "XTREME" cables for super smooth operation, almost DTS like.

At the control end the Morse uses the universal ends in the 33 series. The engine end varies with brand. You can buy engine specific ends for Mercury and Evinrude.
All of the Japanese brands use the same 33 series universal ends.

With any engine, you will need a separate power trim switch. Mercury offers a nice panel switch and harness that can be wired to any brand engine harness.

I have this control on two Whalers, and they are still the best you can buy. I upgraded to the Ongaro chrome/red stripe knobs, which fit your hand better and look great.
