I've had both, and currently have a Volvo. One more vote to keep the Volvo drive.

I bought my boat with a volvo and just repowered the motor and drive with a volvo....not the norm here on OSO but I have heard very good things about volvo.

Vipers are decent, Turbo, and if you get a Flo-torque II hub for your drive you can run all the Merc hi-perf props.

And boy do they shift smooth!!!

Ahhhh, yeah that's a different story. But in stock applications those props HOOK UP! Only problem is when you start modifying/changing the motor/hp/rpm.

What boat do you have?

I have a 25 Checkmate Convincer. Pictures are posted in the Checkmate section on this site. The experts say the drive with slow a boat down. I have a stock 502 (415hp) and so far saw 73.1 on gps only turning 4600 rpm. I need to turn more rpms. But dont know if I can get my props reworked or get new ones. If I get the RPMS right and maybe build some more HP to gain some more speed I have another problem. External streeing? Does and one make a set up for the Volvos?
