Gm marine power 6.0 info
 

Hello,

I'm interested on a scarab 29 from 2001 in good condition with a bravo 3 and u fortunately the owner swaped the engine with a gm marine power 6.0 vvt "SKU:J60VVTFC"

Anyone have some feedback on this engine? It's possible to mod it to take more power?

A single?

I’m no expert but I know a 6.0 is really small for a 29’ boat and the vvt in a truck doesn’t have the best reliability record. Twin?

A single 😢

And Bravo 3 drive? Odd choice, if so.

Yes, he fitted a new bravo 3 with the new engine 2 years ago.

I think the owner don't have many interests on the performance but only on the style of the boat...

I have this option on the scarab 29 with this config from 2001 and a scarab 28 from 1988 with a 454, ss 4 blade prop, in good condition.

The 29 it's on another country and it will cost me 20k more without trailer.
The 28 it's at 20min from my house and the price it's 20k include the trailer.

It's sure the design of the 29 it's incredibly better than 28band more cabine height

Probably didn't have any other choice then to run a B3 with that engine.
