can you unbolt the TRS and bolt up the konrad? or does other stuff need to be changed as well?

Biggus,
I couldn't tell from the website if it came in right and left rotation. Or do you need a tranny with full power reverse capability?

Drive was around $11,000,

I was standin' with Tim, when the guy told us the price, Nice piece, but our jaws dropped, when he threw out the $20,000+ price tag

Take the box with the trans in it and bolt on a 6 drive and now you really have something.

Biggus,

Does it bolt up to the TRS transom assembly? Or do you have to change that.

Remember that's not a bad price. The resale on TRS drives is pretty high right now as there is limited availability. You can probalbly sell a complete TRS assembly in good condtion for $4000.00 each. That means $8000.00 That from the $22,000
$14,000 for brand new drives that will out last any Bravo 1 I have seen. And a boat that shifts smooth.
Not to bad.
Also consider a TRS boat is usually cheaper then a Bravo boat (don't know why) a little more savings.

Just my opinion.

Mark

Gary,

Yes, the drive is available left and right rotation.

Mr Cig,

The Konrad 540 will bolt up to a TRS transom assy. The only modification is to use the Konrad bellhousing.

Pricing is around $8000- retail for drive only.(including the Konrad bellhousing) .. not bad at all when a fresh TRS is fetching $4500

With the new Konrad 540 now available, all those old TRS boats will be an even greater bargain.

Kurt
