2400 SCR engine options

[Piperguy]

Hello to all ! New member here.

I’ve been around boats all my life. Have a chance to pick up a 2400 SCR from an estate that has been sitting on its trailer for more than 10 years in the high desert (yes, I know what I’m getting into, have brought boats “back” before).

My question - boat is over 400 miles from me and the people handling the estate know nothing about it. I only have 2 outside pictures. I’m going to put an offer in on it, but what intrigues me is the following -

The drive is a Bravo 2. To my knowledge and recollection, in 1996 the Bravo 2 was only used behind a 7.4L/454 big block. Was that in fact an option, and may I be looking at a rare boat ?

Thanks for the input and I’m sure I’ll be on here more as I bring this one back to life !

I have a 1997 2400 SCR that was factory powered with a 5.7 and a Bravo 2. I’m not aware of the 7.4 as an option in this boat.
