Question speedmaster gimbles

I've run across a pair of speedmaster gimbles for sale and was wondering if there's any differance from bravo gimbles.I'm planing an alpha to bravo swap,if these are complete transom assemblies will they work?Thanks,Magnum.

Speedmaster and Bravo Gimbals are not interchangeable.
The Alpha to Bravo swap is a good idea for more strength and jumping ability.
If over 500 hp get heavy-duty gimbals...well worth the extra $$.

Thanks Edward, any idea what they may be worth if they're in good condition.I'm still playing phone tag with the guy but I found out they're speedmaster #3's if that matters.The price seems to good to pass up,maybe I could resell or trade for what I need.Thanks,Magnum.

Are they #3 or 3A'S. the 3a's have larger pins and are worth much more than the old style #3'S. Cobra or someone else might trade you for what you need.

You will have to run transmissions if you install #3s.This will also move your
engines forward unless you also install standoff boxes. Keep in mind parts for
#3s are getting hard to come by.3as are OK.Good luck
