I’d be prepared to upgrade the drive. I couldn’t keep a Bravo XR drive alive for 20 hours behind a blown 540 in a single engine AO. Went through 3 in 2 seasons and then upgraded to IMCO SCX. Healthy BBC blower motors crush Bravo drives.

Daytona25 - before i cut the hole and mounted my neutral extension box I called Eliminator and asked them what the IDEAL height for the prop was for max speed.
They told me 2 inches up from the lowest point on the bottom of the boat.
They also told me the boat would be a challenge to get on plane.
But with some Tinkering I was able to get the boat on plane without much trouble.
With a Bravo 4 blade prop.

I’ve heard the drive it right theory too. Those are the guys who idle to the cove I think. With a high x-dimension and 800 plus ft pounds of torque at 3500rpm you’re smashing that puny out drive just getting on plane.
