Knock on wood............I've also just run Bravos. Had a single engine boat Fountain with dynoed 675 hp and ran a Bravo for 9 years - 325 hours. Now, a 35' with 700 hp - I'll probably run them until one breaks.

you might want to consiter KONRADS. i never herd of one ever braking . and they use transmisions, nice smooth shifting. no Clunking when putting it in gear. i have them and love them.

Just took apart 2 2003 Bravos with 250hrs. Propshafts are twisted like a pretzel, and lower gears badly pitted. These are X series drives with only 496HO power. Buy XR's or drive gently.
