how long do they last?
I have a 1992 Bravo 1 on a 23 foot Checkmate. Originally powered with a 330HP 454 I've had a 496 Mag HO for the last 4 years. At almost 20 years old I'm wondering if I should have the drive rebuilt before something goes south or wait it out. The boat only weighs 3300 lbs so that's a plus but I do get a lot of air. The fluid has always been changed yearly with the merc HP stuff and I'm having no problems yet. Any opinions or experience would be appreciated?

Hmm, not the answer I expected but good points. I'm all about leaving it alone. Not sure aout the hours. I can scan the 496 but there's no meter left from the 454 days. Best guess is 700 or so.
