Hi Rick
I heard that you are friend of Ekber in Turkey and doing busıness.(He is buıldılg mılıtary and superyachts here)He is very close to my family.I will tell him to do the instalation to my boat.I will use gas engines 750 to 900 hp.I will use longer flaps that they usually use in cigs.
Probably will make 90 to 95miles

If they are in line models, what are you going to use for a marine gear that can handle 850 hp and give reduction, rotation change and drop?

erol

I have several borg warner transmissions in several reduction ratios.
Depending on the boat and power i will choose a combination,still not finished any boat deal.

Rik

The Borg Warners will not handle the power you have.

The 5000A is good for 450-500 hp best case.

Rik,

Have you ever put the ASD 6-7 conversion on a twin step Cigarette ? If you did how does it work? If not is there a reason or just because nobody has tried yet?

Rik;
i believe hp labels on engines are not 100% correct, you can see lots of people driving 700+'s with standart bravo's , on the other hand you manufacturers always underestimate the capacity of your stuff, we have driven asd6 in line aluminum unit with 540 cubic inch blown (minimum 750-800hp) under a 8,50 meter 3000kg boat for several seasons.Nothing happened

Rik

Tim, the drive does not care. Its the transmission that cares.

With an in line drive, which is designed for a diesel application, the marine gear handles the rotation and the reduction.

These are diesel transmissions and they are not efficient spinning at 5-5500 rpm nor 800 hp.

If you can get the power to the drive, it does not care. It's just getting it to the drive that is the hard part with this setup.

Rik

No one has done it yet. There is no reason why it would not work as they work on all the other boats out there, stepped and non stepped.

Put the #7M's on a 99 38' Top Gun which as you know is a no step and the boat ran 108 so far.
