Do you know what version you have? If possible post a picture of your existing stuff.

I do have some props but I don't think I want to shake any loose at this point.

Friend of mine has one on a Concord Mach II with a 350 MAG MPI and it’s an absolute blast to drive. If I remember right his seems to like more of a neutral trim setting vs flying the nose a little higher with a traditional drive. Boat runs about 72 or so with it on there

That looks like an absolute blast of a boat!

I hate to tell you this but I need to see the inside of the case with the upper gear set out. There are at least 2 versions. One has a shaft setup just like a Bravo. I'll post some pics later.

Oh I thought you were talking about the case itself. I do have some part numbers from replaced gear sets. Will that help or you need to see the Inside?

Probably worth almost 10 mph over a standard Bravo boat.

As far as parts hard to find a good number of the components are the same as a Bravo 3. And drives come up on Ebay all the time.

I happen to have 8 brand new housings and enough new parts to put together 4 complete drives.

would you be interested in selling any? Or parts?
