I currently have a 35hp outboard attach to a simple non factory steeing wheel system and i have recently had a second exactly same motor given to me. I was wondering what it would take to connect both to my steering sytem.

you need to consult with a dealership that does this on a regular basis. if there is a kit available, that will be the easy way. if not, there are a few variables you will need to understand.
For starters….you need to ensure that your boat is rated for 70 HP or above….if not don’t do it. If it is rated for 70 or more HP, you will need to consult a service manual for your brand of engine and read up on the rigging section for twin engine set up. Take measurements of your boat to ensure that it will handle the rigging instructions you read in the manual. Follow the instructions to the letter or you could tear up your boats transom or both engines. Consider this….one 70 HP outboard weighs less than two 35 HP engine……the weight will make a big difference on the performance and handling of your boat. Good Luck.
