Default looking at a boat that needs rigging

Hi guys, I asked before if a omc/gimball can be converted to a BBC/bravo, and it looks like it fits in, but now I need to know what are the difference between the braveos?

I know there are 3 series, for a bigger boat is the 1 ok?
Is 2 better?
I would also like to be able to get some nice top end every once and a while.

This would be for a 24 ft boat.
Thanks

Really depends on HP rating and weight of the boat.

What type of boat and what horsepower do you plan on putting in?
The more information the better for us to help.

B2's are for BIG cruisers, B1 for a perf boat, B3 is somewhere in between.

The boat had a 454/330hp he claims about 70mph with that. I would most likely look to double that power 600-700hp. it is a bigger boat. it's a tunnel hull boat.
