I might try to turn my props inward just to see what happens. I think I swap props on the drives and reverse the cables on the shifters correct? What about the top bearing caps on the drives will they be okay for a test run. The port drive has long studs and bigger cap on top compared to the right, I would imagine the shaft has uppward pressure on that drive turning counter clockwise.

switch your props side to side. reverse will be forward and forward will be reverse on your shifters. if you decide you like it change your cables later on. ive been told to swap your drives every year. it helps even wear since bravo drives are not directional. which makes sense. trs and speedys are directional. your drive probably has a different cap cus it was damaged at some point in life and replaced. the port drive doesnt come with a beefier cap stock since there is not such thing as a left or right hand bravo drive. let me know how you make out. i wont get out on my boat til saturday
