Default Blown Bravo 1 need help

I just bought a 1998 HTM SR24 with a Bravo 1, I had it at Lake Havasu last weekend for it's first trip out and the drive blew up when I was going across the lake at about 65mph. I think I had it trimed too high when it broke I don't want to have to deal with this again, but don't have the money to buy a new or bult drive so I was thinking of getting a used/rebuilt XR upper and reusing my IMCO lower. Boat has about 450hp and would like to put a blower on it in the future, so I want to stay away from Mickey Mouse stuff. Does anyone have a XR upper they would like to sell or know of anyone else that does?

My Best,
Michael
