Billfish, yes, you are required to gat all te wood out of teh transom, but I honestly dont think that anyone ever gets all te wood out. Might take some time, but not as much time to cut the cap off as I did.
My cap is back on and now teh real patience sets in, doing teh body work correctly to the point that you cant tell teh cap was ever off.
You could fill with resin along with chopped mat. Seen the chopped mat on E-Bay.
Be sure to post pics. of the motor removal, We can walk ya through each step. ;)

When we removed my 150 johnson we did not use a hoist just three guys and some beer. We pushed the trailer over to where I was going to leave the motor then lowered the motor down onto a peice of wood. Then we disconected all the wires steering etc.. We removed the four bolts holding on the motor then just laid the motor over. The biggest problem we had (three of us) we were prepared for it to weigh more than it did and we faught each other more then the weight of the engine. We just reversed the process to put it back on and you can use the trailer jack to line the holes back up.Oh, and when your rmoving the motor have the your beers sitting out of the way as my buddy knocked mine over.

I dug down into the transom a little and split the wood with a chisel. See attached pics.
