I'd definitely consider a bracket.
Only worked on an 18 installing a big 200 Yamaha,
and the bolt access is very tight and limited with the well,
as well as the cutout being one engine.

Giving the cowls tilt room is gonna be fun!
What's the weight diff of two 50's vs one 1xx and a 15 kicker?

I would imagine a bracket which could accommodate twins would also need a wider bolt patter than I have access to through the splashwell, no?
As far as the cowls clearing; the transom has been raised to 25" so with that back deck/gunnels removed I will/should have adequate room. Good thought though as I also need to take into consideration tilt room for the hydraulic steering
