You want the BBHP Open Season Full Conversion Kit which you can purchase from any Betson/Raw Thrills distributor near you.
 
BBH 1.5 Shooter's Challenge,
BBH2 Sportsman's Paradise
BBH3 Call of the Wild

These three are all just board hard drive upgrades (maybe power supplies if they are different color boards -red/green).

I don't know anything about the PRO series but if they are like the GT Live's with the Nighthawk system there is an IO board included that you can adjust the resolution to whatever you need. VGA goes to the IO board. Jumpers set res out through the jamma connector.

If you have a red board there is a guy here that does GT Complete upgrades for $250 that can also do Call of the Wild for a similar price. There are mixed reviews about the service but from what I can tell things seem to be better now than when he started.

Pro runs on a PlayMechanix-style PC, same hardware as Deal Or No Deal. Video does go to an I/O board. Never checked to see if the mode can be changed. I can easily go look if needed.

My recommendation is to call Betson and ask them.
