Going to buy a large single. Looking at PQ 280s and Bajas. Most that I'm looking at have Bravo One's. What's the rebuild interval on one of these with a 496HO? What parts are replaced and how much does the service typically cost? Budgetary numbers only please.

Also, one boat has a built 502 that puts out HP525 power with 540hp and 611lbs at the crank. It still spins a stock Bravo One. Can it handle it?

Lots of info on OSO about this.....keep fresh fluid and be easy on it....be fine.

My drive before it was rebuilt by Doller Offshore had around 700hours on it. I have a built Gellner Powered 454 around 550hp. Doller Inspected the drive and said that it was pretty spotless inside.

Have almost 700 hrs on my 2000 29 outlaw w 454mags 385hp not any problems todate. Change drive oil every 25 hrs. Dont forget the drive showers!!
