Bravo XR to IMCO SCX Conversion

I didn't go with Bravo shafts either, went with the 1 7/16" prop shafts.. I have the brass IMCO adapter in the Maximus props and the Herings are a solid hub, I got lucky and found a set as that is not a common prop shaft.... I have staggered 525's and thank you for the compliment!!

When i talked to Imco on the phone they referred to the SCX lower that looks like the -4 or the sc lower as the #13 lower. They claim in all the testing it was not better then the standard looking SCX lower besides personal preference on the cosmetic.

OK
The IMCO Uppers are here, Gonna bolt them on soon. I Went with the IMCO resevoirs, Anybody got some ideas on where to mount them so I don't have to crawl over the motors to get to them?

Pat, Great looking set up on the boat!!! What gear ratio did you go with? 1.5, or, 1.34? Also, what size prop are you running with your 525's? Speed? I don't know which way to go yet, 1.5's, or, 1.34's. Prop shaft size 1 7/16", is that a #6 size shaft? Can you use the bravo style props? Just a hub change? Any info will help, Thanks, Robbie

Hey Robbie,
1.5 gear ratio
Currently running a 30 5 blade Maximus
Speed, 84-85
I put 1- 7/16" prop shafts, no this is not a Bravo size, next size up.
No it's not #6 shaft size
You can use bravo style just have to put Imco hub in prop.
I have a set of 31 Hering 5 blade that I will run this summer.
Hope this helps
Thanks Pat

Pat, Thanks for the info, sounds like a great set up. I was not aware that the 1 7/16 shaft would work with Bravo props, I will talk with Dave @ IMCO, put the hubs on the order!!!! I have the IMCO Transom assemblies for the SCX's they are massive. Again, Thanks, Robbie
