Conversion from cable to rack and pinion steering on older outboard?

I just purchased a newer StarCraft aluminum boat (1976) to replace my old one (1962). I want to use my old Evinrude (1967) outboard motor on my new boat. The new boat has rack and pinion steering and I don't know how to convert my old outboard to this new steering system. I don't want to convert the new boat to cable steering. Does anyone know of a source of parts or information on how to make the conversion? I looked at a buddies' late model Mercury and it is a completely different set up than what I have on the Evinrude.

Thanks in advance!!!

Because of the age of your outboard, The steering cable will probably not adapt to the pivot tube on the outboard. You will need to get a transom mount adapter kit, available from any marine supplier that deals with Teleflex. This is a link to West marine, use the aluminum kit # 275776, no need for the extra expense of the stainless kit. You may also have to get the correct tiller bar (the piece that connects the cable to the motor, i don't think it comes with the kit.
