I have had both , 76 23's one on notch and one with armstrong bracket.
I agree with all the pros, and some of the cons. If i had it to do over i would go with a min. setback bracket and maybe add a jackplate for shallow water running.
I run a first generation fourstroke 225 , i will look to reduce some weight when i repower.
In general i think the pros outweigh the cons.
