Bracket and Trim Tabs

[shrimper1234]

Im am in the process of restoring a '76 23' sceptre and will be putting an armstrong 6' bracket on the boat with a 250 yamaha. Will i have enough room to mount the trim tabs under the bracket at the edge of the boat? Also, how have you guys modified your boats to self-bail? Did you have to raise the decks from the original height?
