It will probably squat pretty bad, and performance would suffer some but you could make it work

A little heavy in the rear. However, if you decide to go for it make sure you don't slow down to quickly or you'll end up swamping your boat. Speaking from experience here and mine was on a 1650 with a 35 though.

If I'm not mistaken, the 27 isn't much lighter than the 36.
But like said above. You need a longer boat. And don't slow down too fast if you decide to go with that boat. Move everything to the bow. Gas tank, battery, etc...

I ran a big block Mudbuddy on a 14x44.
It wasn't terrible, you just had to pay attention.
