    How are to planning to “marinize” a truck engine.. Properly done, at the very least you need a coolant cooled turbo and exhaust manifold, seawater pumping system and then all needs to be “plumbed right.. If this was a air to air aftercooled engine, then that will present another major issue that needs to be addressed, especially if you are thinking “more HP”..

    Post a serial number of the CPL 600 Cummins.

    Curious– what exactly is a “27 hydro field jaguar” Got some pictures?
