Steering cable compatibility question?

I'm looking to possibly re-power my J16 Skiff with a 2000 Honda 40 HP (Model BF40AY).The motor does not come with the steering cable and I was wondering if I might get lucky and the old cable from my 1989 Yamaha Pro50 might hook up to it? I'm also looking at possibly re-powering with a 1989 48 HP Johnson so the same question about compatibility would apply here as well.

BTW, Waviel Porter in Woodville has the best deals on steering cables if you do need a set.
That is if you are referring to throttle and shifter, not steering.

If the cable you have now works it will work with the new motor.
