If it was me I would be talking to these guys on my drive needs. I have heard nothing but good. Not cheap but neither is IMCO and there are others here on the board that had not so good luck from IMCO. Just my .02.

750 HP on a stock bravo XR is not a good idea.

Lord Knows I've blown a few

I CAN PUT A BRAVO X SERIES GEAR UPGRADE IN YOUR DRIVE AND I HAVE HAD GOOD LUCK WITH THIS ON A LOT OF BOATS WITH YOUR POWER CALL ME 513-477-2780 CELL WHITE OAK AUTO AND MARINE CINTI OH. ASK PEOPLE ON OSO I WILL TURN IT QUICK:D

You can, also, contact Dick Tryce ( Mr. Gadgets ) on the board. I believe he is a charter OSO'er and does fantastic work. He can do the XZ upgrade and will even blueprint the upper to bring the gears into proper tolerances.

I just spoke with Jason and he says he will put his drives upto IMCO, TEAGUE etc..

So he definitely has a very nice drive and he is local, but he also wants my drive and around $8500.

I can buy a brand new drive from Teague XR for $8500 and still have my drive or maybe go with someone on the board who has a drive ready to go or upgrade mine.

I am now going to try and contact both Mr. Gadgets and merlin540.

Stay tuned... I know someone else on this board had to be thinking of upgrading their drives.

Krumbsnatcher,
Give me a call, we can discuss the pro's and con's of both routes, new vers upgrade.

During the week I hit it early, have to be up at 4am for work everyday. I will be around this weekend, so if you want, give me a ring. No matter if you have me or someone else do your drive, setup is one of the most important issues that must be addressed with your level of power..

Could your shift cable be possible broken.Check cable movment with leg off.

i work more the late shift so call me or i will pm you. i can also blueprint you upper and we have had great results. my personal boat is a 97 31ft american offshore with 970hp supercharged engines that runs over 120 with the x/series gears. i dont like the xr gear wear problem for the money difference of the gear's price:D
