depending on your HP you can do a switch to the imco scx...basically bolt on and has handled 1000 hp.

Or you can try the new X DRIVE @ 30k a piece they think thats a good alternative to broken bravos! I told them I can buy alot of bravos for 60k but they didnt think so.

The Arneson Bravo conversion will be a strong and fast option, and is a true surface drive.

I second this. John Pfahl is the most helpful person out there.

If it was we'd all have switched at some point!

Lots of alternatives all seem to have varying amounts of success depending on the throttle hand.
