The one concern I have is the motors are very heavy on an older transom. You have a floor in yours? Mine is still holding up well.
I made a bracket that through bolts the outside transom and is bolted directly to the struts. I also use a transom saver to take some weight off the transom. Especially when it bouncing down the highway.
Mine's pretty tricked out. Bait station with large Magma cutting board amidship port side. Garmin color plotter, Lowrance fish finder, ICOM VHF, RACOR fuel water separator, 2000gph auto Rule bilge pump, AM/FM radio, bow anchor swivel, Fortress 7X anchor 10 feet of chain to 150' of 3/8" line, attached cooler, 6 rod holders, and 7 extra cleats. And the battery with that 12 gallon Moeller tank in the bow
Love it.
