You know the deal..................DEEP POCKETS = SPEED 
You and I have talked about this before.
If I were in your shoes, I'd be looking for a good deal on another XR. Then turn up the boost to 700-800HP at the appropriate time. Then if your drive blows, and it will sooner or later, it's a quick swap.
Even at 7K each for 2 more XR drives you'll still be way ahead of the game compared to repowering with the new drive.
IMO just play with props for another year, your boat is awesome the way she is...

Mid summer he showed me a rack of XR's for his clients who kept spare drives. On guy had 3 spare XR's................he also had a tripple 525 42' OL......................As I said DEEP POCKETS.

Thanks Pat, I knew they were around $$ 7500, not bad I guess for " that piece of mind ". Perhaps a low hour used ( not abused ) drive may be another choice for half the price.
