Turning props in on Bravo 1

Want to try turning props in on my b1's. I know its been done by switching props and running drives in reverse. Will this do any damage?

Thanks in advance for the help,
Curt

All you have to is change the cable location travel at engine and swap the props. There is no right or left drive on Bravos.
You just change shift direction.

no, this will not do any damage. your shifers will just be opposite. Let me know how you make out, ive got to try that again as well

Yes that is correct, BUT its not the best idea. When a drive has a 99% of its stress going one way, and then you go the opposite way, usually things dont hold up. Dropping a ring off of the gearset is the usual problem. Just my 2 cents:coolcowboy:
