Cummins 6bt to BW

[andyvinkus]

I’ve marinized a Cummins 6bta 160hp and I’m ready to fit it to my Borg Warner 72C 2.91:1 gearbox.  I’m running a displacement hull (Canadian fish tug).  What flywheel do you recommend, high inertia vs low inertia? SAE 3.  I’ll be ordering your Borg Warner adapter and dampener and wanted clarification on the flywheel before placing an order.  

• Thanks!

For your application either will do the job just fine– The automotive 6BT’s were always smoother running than the marine engines.
