I have to ad something I learned the hard (costly) way. A later 24v Smart Crap set-up. In the top display corner is a DCv value. It was always...
Or your alternator is not putting out. But yes, Low DC Voltage.
The 8.3 was a favorite even before that high pressure pump (Common rail). I don't think there is a more bomb proof engine than the 450HP QSC line....
We would throw these ceremonies for our customers. Dressed up as pirates, made the past and new name tags. Had the new ships name covered until...
The power choice in a new build may not be of science, engineering or dependability but rather what meets the needs of the hull and cost the hull...
Not much good to say about them. They had a bad start in life and was eventually replaced with the 3126. At best, was just a bit better. IMO,...
Now your looking at a Mut. Bye..
The later Cats PAST 31 & 32XX are great. I would still luv an ole 3406. Past the old Cummins VT/VMs, the Cummins straight 4 & 6s up are way better...
Avoid what you have been already finding; Do not do business with this outfit. I know of him and his associates.
Before you start thinking about rebuilding Lehman engines, Please gather serials numbers, clutch type and some pictures together. Contact THE only...
Think of the Chevy 327 vs the 350. Shorter stroke, less displacement, higher RPM, the 327 made more WOT HP. Scary thought; I think I heard about...
If you are going to keep the boat awhile and put lots of hours on the engines, yes new power may be a great plan to ensure less troubled time down...
Like the DDC 92s, the 53s have wet liners also. IMO; Lean to the 71s if you can. Forgot about Tolly's. I thought they were a good boat. On...
Hatt and other mfg's had easy to drop arches, mast and other high items that would drop to make that (#$%%^&*^ing) Chicago bridge. Some of these...
I don't have anything real bad to say about Bayliner or Meridian boats. They are solid and have a good engine package. Mostly cummins and I feel...
Lets find you kids a nice boat. We have not got any styles from you yet? You need speed? Cockpit? Head room? More that 1,2 or 3 cabin & heads?...
If you needed twin 375 HP engines in a trawler, this may have been a cheap and short viewed answer. I'll never understand the need to try and over...
Now, in natural tune, the 155 or even the 3208 T in 260 HP, could run and run and run. But, the rebuild day is coming. It's not rebuildable on board.
Just found a 2000 cut sheet on a 450HP Cat 3208 TA. Listed for one year. Shortly before and after a 435HP was offered. The madness. These were...
If you don't mind, I'd like to type a lil more; I have a dream; Some way, some how, some body builds a serviceable boat with correctly match...
