Duramax boat engines????
I remember seeing a while back a boat being rigged with Marine Duramax engines. It was yellow is about the only thing I remember.
What ever happened to this boat? did this work?? I actually thought gm was behind it.
The reason I ask is I just got a new duramax truck (my first diesel). And the torque is crazy. And you see guys getting 1200+HP out of these engines I would think it would be a good fit especially when you figure you can cool the exhaust with water.

Anyone know what the boat was that they tested these motors in?
And can someone explain how a twin turbo'd AND supercharged motor only puts out 700hp?? Explain how 700 HP in diesel format is different from 700hp in gas format please.
