somewhere, somehow, there is a chart listing max trailer and GCV weights for the engine/tranny/axle combo. I just dont happen to have one for 83. All 3 of my 90's listed 7200lbs 302/aod/3.55

Not with those gears you're not.
That 2bl carb isn't going to help either, assuming your motor is still stock.

Trans should be fine if you keep it cool. that boat might be only18 ft, but thats an old heavy trailer and old heavy fiberglass with old heavy plywood - 4000lbs? you can swap in an 8.8 in 3.55 which are a dime a dozen in the boneyards.
