What about a DURAMAX ??? ON another thread some one said there are twin turbo DURAMAX @ 600/700 HP and the same or more in torque. I think one or two of those would do the trick. Also same LBS. as 525 AW.

I read that thread, but no way to find any info.

Who has the marine version of the Duramax?

Re: Diesels in Hi perf cats 30-40 ft range.
 

Google "Hammerhead Diesel"

They are used in Norway/Sweden and there is a company in the Caribbean that distributes them along with a company in Louisiana I believe.

Hammerhead is the old style GM diesel BEFORE the DURAMAX and there have been a lot of factory improvements in the last few years. Factory 405 HP and 600+ TQ. put a BANKS programer and a few other of his GOODIES and your up to easy 500HP and 700/800 TQ. with up to date computer controls. THE PROBLEM IS no one seems to be selling a marine package yet. That will be a GOLDMINE for that company. I'll be there cash in hand and then couple that with one of RIK's #6 or #7 and your ALL SET!!!!!! AW

GM doen't sell any Duramax's to marinizers because they can't keep up with demand for pickup trucks now. Hopefully sometime in the future.

Funny you say that. I know someone in LA that tried to purchase two of these engines to put in a boat.

The dealer refused to sell him the engines without a VIN from his trucks.

GM is developing a marine version, the tommy bahama pleasure conversion MTI is getting one of the first sets...
