Better ck the warrenty and see if they will cover them at that weight

Something as heavy as 17 thousand pounds.......... Go with Arneson drives. You NEVER hear horor stories about Arneson drives breaking at 300 hrs. You DON'T need to modify them .... you DON'T need to put showers on them.

With the Konrad ACE system, the transmission goes in the extension box outside the transom so inside space should not be a concern. I think with you application, Konrads many commercial diesel applications would give you a long lasting drive package. Arnesons are good strong dives also, especially behind diesels, I am just not sure they would be the best configuaration for your use type.

Ray is right on the money. Konrad has done literally hundreds of diesel applications and I feel we have what it takes for a successfull application.

Give Fred a call at Konrad Marine 715-386-4203 he's very much intune with the diesel market.
