What year is the Jaws you want to buy. I own a 1980 24 ft. Jaws Super Sport with a Volve 280 Drive. "Old School Boat", 30 years old and runs great.

TRS drive for that setup...mild power should be bullet proof. TRS is fine for up to 500HP-550HP. I ran 675HP for 100 hours without a problem on my old mistress before Konrads. And that is on heavy twin appliacations. A single 24' no problem if properly maintained. I am sure others will chime in with the same info. I would not hesitate if the deal is right

There's more than enough drive there for that motor/boat.... hopefully the X is not to low but that can always be fixed. We have trs parts if you need and we're here in the 305 :cool:

You forgot to mention why it run's great Andy !!! A little old school mixed with a little new. And yes it does run great , now why not show us what makes it run. I was more than a little inpressed when I first seen it. Jeff :drink: :drink:
