Kracker what kind of money are we talking about to put on a transome bracket?

All depends on the shape of the transom. When you remove the seadrive you will have a pretty good idea. I have seen the outboard brackets range from 500 to a 1000 on Craigslist.

I would not personally put a bracket on that transom without reinforcing it with transom knees or some other type of structual assistance. You will have a lot of weight on a very old transom. Get MJ's attention, he should be able to help you alittle better with cost on a bracket conversion on a v20.
