Noooooooo Bravoooooooooo. Huge waste of time and money swapping to a Bravo setup. You could probably find speedmaster lowers for your trs's if you tried.

Only Speedmaster lower that bolts to a TRS Upper is the SSM II and no parts available and not stronger then TRS. Go Konrads or stick with TRS. TRS good for 600 HP. I had a flat bottom Cigarette Mistress with 675 NA motors. Ran 80-90 hours without failure. Then went Konrads.

DON'T DO IT! TRS's are much better for a big heavy boat like that. If you really want an upgrade go konrad, or as Rik would recommend, Arneson. Brovo's would be a major waste of resources on that boat.

Look in the classifieds, there are set of Konrads in the Swap shop, that only have a few hours on them.
the conversion is easy, and that set is very reasonable everything there.
I would never switch to a bravo on a 38, too heavy for a weak drive. not to mention too much work, and poor balance once complete.
When I read through the tech section and see so many posts of people looking for a bravo solution it makes me wonder why others want to switch to them?
