no it will not. Konrad has a trs and Ssm replacement that uses there own helmet for each. Nothing about a Konrad bolts to any bravo parts.

Copy thanks !!! The boat ran really well with out them got on plane nice. Not sure exactly the benefit of boxes ?

i didnt know that about the konrads good info. boxes are supposed to put the props in good clean water. on boats with no notch transoms sometimes at speed the water was coming up too far back for the props to bite, hence extension boxes. some boat mfrs say their boat dont need them, i think thats just pride. with the set back though it changes the ctr of gravity which is why the prop line drops.

I did not specify anything special. Just regular powdercoat , has been holding up fine so far

Good news on the headers. My transom does have a notch. I may really consider those boxes looked like a clean set up. All parts are ordered for engines working on getting them together. Once I get some glass work done witch will give me a lot of time to think lol I can decide about those boxes.

Run the boat as-is for 2020, boxes may make it porpoise (if it doesn't already), under 70mph. I ran next to your boat and was impressed with how it ran. Nice and flat in bumpy water cruising at 65-70. You can always add the boxes next year. You're changing alot all at once so it may be hard to determine if the boxes "did" anything for you.

Just my .02cents

I agree with Justin, with all the changes you’ve made I would hold off and see how it reacts to what you’ve done so far.

As long as the props aren’t completely wrong for it, the boxes will actually help with porpoising. But with the speed this boat ran for the power it had, I’d leave it alone.
