So, mix 9 parts beer, one part transom assembly and two parts drill with paint stripper wheel and this is what you get...

[Dude! Sweet!]

Maybe I'll finish taking it apart now, but hey it seemed like a good idea a the time!

Sean, I was at work last night went you sent me the pics.
Didn't have the chance to reply.

You're getting into one of my style projects...
Just keep getting yourself in deeper and deeper...

Next time I get a weekend off, maybe I'll head out your way.
You've got sofa space, right?

Scott don't think I don't know that this is all some sort of subconsious marketing excercise to get me to buy your #4 drive and box off of you!

#4 huh?

Don't know much about them.
I thought the only desirable drives are the 3A, and the 6.
Scott, don't take that as a knock to the 4, I just don't hear much about them.
If you wish to educate, by-all-means.:bigear:

I can actually see the photos on these threads, so apparently someone with a camera has stolen Sean's identity........... I approve

Freeze-Frame and Sharkey have been camping in the front yard at Seans place when they aren't out at the events. Jayboat hasn't made it out West yet, but I think he'd be up for it.
They figure that there is an opportunity there

Take this for what it's worth, but from what I've gleaned... #3 has small shaft internals and a deep lower, #3A is like the 3 but with bigger internals. #4 is sort of like a shortly #3 and a #5 is like a shortly 3A. That's what I got from reading through some stuff and talking to people. Whether it's right or not, I can't really say. I have been fantasing about putting a speedmaster on the boat. I believe Tunnel Vision ran a #4 on a box and Daredevil Scott happend to have one for sale I think (might have been a #5) so it kinda fit...

And there's your overly described internal monolouge for the day.

Posting this to see if my new sig shows up... Had to throw a little support for an "ex-girlfriend" of mine...

Almost correct,,,but the #4 also came with a big shaft and later polygon upper gears and was almost as strong as a #5 also the lower housing on a #4 is a tat faster then #5,,,upper is the same and they have the exact same dimensions.
And yes i still have a few 4's ,5's,3'sand 3a's !!!!!

The polygon #4 big shaft and the #5 and 3A are rated at the same HP ( 750-800 HP ) they can take up to 1200 easy ,,the reason beying rated @ 750-800 was because bacj then this was the biggest engine package from merc.

HAHAHA,,just read this,,,your to funny. But hey its in real good condition and it would work.

[Dude! Sweet!]

How much pain to convert a bravo boat to a speedie?

[duunoit]

That's what it had on it before I bought it (3a, I think)... I know the hole is bigger so you probably wouldn't have to fill, just recut. Only thing is, I don't know how tall the drives are but I'm guessing they're like a TRS (longer) so you hmay have to fill if the new, higher cutout wouldn't cover the bravo hole. Also the motor would have to be pushed forward to make room for a trans...

[DAREDEVIL]

#4 would give u higher X then the Bravo,,also only a little re-cut and engine moved forward. Thats it.

Actually not that much work, if u have room ,which u should if it had tranny's befor.

[tomcei]

Ok.... this is where I should step in and tell you how special and important you are to all of us...... DON"T DO IT MAN!!......please put down the tools and step away from the boat!!! AND WE PROMISE NOBODY WILL GET HURT!!

just kiddin
Now keep posting pics or I may have to send out "Larry the leg breaker"

And who needs a respirator, when we were younger and dumber we used to paint cars in condo sized garages with no stinking respirator(I do use one today though)
