Look at propriders thread on his Viper rebuild in the Restorations section. His transom is beautiful, and can probably hold 2 motors on it.

Knees will definitely help reduce the stress at the corners. If you do go with installing knees, just make sure they don't interfere with your engine mounting bolt holes.

Here is my vking, still need to lay down 2 layers of 1708, then tab in my outside braces where Hydrostream never attached the upper cap stringers to the transom.

Yep, my cap stringers were the same way. I have some filler pieces made to tab back in to the transom. Thanks for the info and pics!
