can i convert a manual start to and electric?

[jabboo]

i bought a old chrysler outboard motor <br />tiller steering<br />the model number is <br />203hf<br />and the serial is 3212<br /><br />its very hard to pull the cord it aint because of the cord but it is the big circle thing that it is trying to rotate i think its because of high compression and its just to hard to pull the rope to start it.<br /><br />would it be possible to convert it to a electric start?<br />how would i go about doing this andhow much would it cost roughly ?<br />what parts would i need?

jabboo,<br /><br />That's going to be a tough one. I don't think you are going to find new parts.<br /><br />Best looking on the net for Chryler engine clubs, etc. for possible parts leads and advice.

is it possible to use a normal starter motor from a small car like a hatchback ?<br />would that work ? and just add a batery <br /> or am i missing something and need other partS ?
