Hi - just acquired a 2000 maxum for a nice price. Came with bravo (2s i think?) - the transoms are a little toast.. since its only pushing 2 4,3s im wondering if swapping to gen2 setups would work fine? I have a bunch of gens 2 stuff all over the shop, from the inner transom plates to the outside..

shd be fine yeah? only issue is possibly locating a counter rotating gen2 lower (sei last resort honestly...)

other than that the alphas should hold up ok with the twin 4.3s pushing the boat, or is is a little heavy / big for 2 gen 2's? Think bravos also have more parasitic drag in the larger gears etc..

thoughts gentleman?

Couple things…
1. Are your motors modified?
1.5- if they’re modded, what are the mods?
2. How many hours on the bravo’s?

I assume you mean the transom assemblies are toast. First thing is determine what drives you have. If they are Bravo 2's then they will be much deeper than an Alpha would be and you could have handling issues or trouble getting on plane. Alpha would be plenty strong enough for any 4.3. You would need to install shift interrupt switches to run the Alpha's and would want to remove the raw water seapumps that are on the engines now.
