      May 20, 2022 at 5:12 pm Hopefully this will help the boating community as to sorting the new changes in aftercooler design Cummins has come up with.. It used to be easy for me as itĀ  all set in my “memory bank”.. Corey put most of this together and Justin & I added some thoughts.Ā  I am sure this will be a “moving topic” are these newer coolers get a few years of “Marine Age” on them. Now I even have to look at pictures and notes …

      May 12, 2022 at 6:49 am These are the proper running fuel pressure number measured on the filter head on the QSB 5.9, QSC and QSL 9.. Ā  I have not measured th 6.7 yet, but suspect it in the 50-100 PSI range.Ā

      April 16, 2022 at 10:13 am This is what you can get for $350K these days when you need a bunch of them Ā  Based on the QSB 5.9 ( 480??) You get 400 Hours and then you send it back yo the “upfitter” in Florida for a complete go-thru redo ( of course on your dime) 2-Speed gear box ( the main case is a Velvet Drive for sure) with a 2-speed tail shaft?Ā Ā  Drives a 36Ft military rib with,Ā  Ā probably w/ twin Mercury racing division out-drivesĀ  The more you look at the…

      December 24, 2019 at 7:29 am Obviously, “A New Way to Skin a Cat” is still alive and well.. Walters Machine Company did something like this for decades to make their V-drive output shaft operate at 10-20 degrees in relation to the input shaft.. It’s worked for them and kinda put them on the map for many years.. Innovative in the 60’s & 70’s for sure.. Today–More like “adaptive engineering vs. “new engineering & de…

      March 10, 2019 at 11:41 am I am currently involved in a potential repower project with a Southern Cross 52 that has 1987 Vintage 8V-92 TIā€™s in the 730-735 HP range/ 2300 Rated RPM.. 1.54:1 gears swinging 28ā€ x 25ā€ 4B props (maybe 26ā€ of pitchā€”conflicting email numbers) ..

      March 19, 2019 at 5:43 am Rob and Tony, I have an accurate idea of the slippage of our Sea Ray, but only at Cruise RPM. I have not done a full RPM graph of performance. Shame on me I guess. My numbers are within reasonable error with Rob’s around 20kts. I sat towards the back of the class.
