Default 27 sedan conversion from twin to single

I have a 1971 sedan hull rigged with 2 volvo transom plates.Iwant to convert it to a single bravo drive. I am looking for any information on This. Particularly X dimension, cutting out the middle stringer, adding new stringers or cradleing the motor.

There is a member who goes by the name of Tripp or Tripps, who has done the conversion. Maybe he'll see this post and offer some insight. I would like to see some pics of the boat.

Default keep the twins

I had the transom replaced on my sedan and put in 2 350mags with bravos 8 years ago. I love the way the boat handles and with the small blocks I can get my arm between them for service. I would be nervous about cutting the middle stringer, because I think the sedans are borderline in that department already.
