Hey Overboard,
Welcome to the site. I see you are interested in a bracket conversion for your outboard V. You didn't say what motor you are going with, I am currently running a 115 2 stroke on an 18" setback bracket on mine which I find to be plenty of motor for what I do. If you are planning to go with a larger motor I would consider a bracket with a longer set back. I also moved my fuel tank foward about 20" to offset moving the motor back since I had to pull the tank any way.
