Engine Brackets for 23 cc

[Wireman]

Brothers of the seacraft community, I am reaching out to ask any input
on what engine bracket you have used in your classic 23 cc rebuilds.
I am leaning towards an Armstrong bracket. I have read that some of you
have used stainless marine brackets as well. I am re-powering with a 2014 300hp Mercury 4 stroke. Also i want to know if you made any modifications as
far as moving the console forward as i have read that some have done that to
balance weight distribution. Thank you for your suggestions and time..
