I had 620HP to a 1994 Bravo I for 400 hours and it was trouble free. Don't do burn-outs and come off the throttle when you exit the water and you'll be fine.

buy a xr or xz and keep the bravo one for a spare.

Frank, how did you make wit the tranducer placement?

Made out great! I had to cut the coring out, but I have it all done and glued in. Now I'm going to stick the drive back on and splash it to see if it works before I fill the hole with resin. Oh, and I got the A/C and shore power installed too! Finally
Now I have to finish the engine build and reinstall it and I'll be ready for Velocity Fest!

Here's where I ended up placing it.
