Default Mini Outboard Brackets?

I am looking for some guidance for my 20 SC project,
I am looking at these mini outboard brackets made by stainless marine

http://www.stainlessmarine.com/produ...mini-brackets/

now my train of thought is, by having the outboard mounted on one of these mini brackets, e.g. the 7 or 9 inch ones, when the engine is fully down it is completely out of the boat so you can have a seat insert and insert boards on the transom to avoid water coming in,

what I like about this set up is that i'm not increasing the length of the boat massively (I have a small driveway and i not a big fan of those larger brackets) and I can build a pretty bad ass full stern seat for when the outboard is fully down,

but what about performance wise or trim? would such a small bracket do anything?

my boat is missing that entire stern section including the locker/seats ont he quarters and the outboard well so i'm still deciding what to do,
Any input will be most appreciated
