Hello SlowRyd. I pm you yesterday. I want to shorten my
Bravo lower and I wanted to talk to you about
Getting a deep enough weld. And cutting down the vertical shaft. I want to run my drive on surface. Taken out 4" to do so.

Hey man I just saw this in my email. I can give you a call tomorrow to talk about it but I can tell you now 4 inches isn't possible. You don't have the space on the vertical shaft between the bearing and you prop wouldn't fit with a bravo upper. You would have to have the scx4 upper to have prop clearance.

Yea, that's an awesome effort, but considering I still blew a TRS upper after about 150 hours with 600hp (lowers only lasted 60-80), whereas my Konrad went 430 hours before the lower went (and I'm guessing that's cause I only changed the gear oil twice in 7 years). For me, anything over 550hp will never be in front of a bravo, TRS, or any combo of the two - just no damn fun.
Stay under that 550 or so and this is a great way to get more speed out of a TRS setup, for sure.
