I would think on a race boat. The way they are mounted in the picture would help in the turn. Mounted following the V would have to help with the rollover.

Fountain installs them straight on all their boats also.

Eddie,
Are u using an IT'S gimbal? Or no box, right on the transom?

TYPHOON

As crazy as this sounds put a backing plate on the inside of the transom. I literal tore my tab out of the transom in a race last year. The bolts with fender washers, 5200 on the external plate and it still pulled it out. I never thought in a million years that would happen. Over build for strength. Weight is not an issue on the newer boats if put in the right locations. I wouldn't doubt you have 300-400 lbs of weight you will need to add to just make race weight. Nice problem to have LOL !!!

Very curious your thought on how it runs on the transom and on the box after you do testing

Ever thought of lowering the motor and using a short drive shaft?

The drive on the transom should be quicker and accelerate better you might sacrifice a little bit of handling
