info on Volvo 600 dpx package
 

I have looked thru the back threads and found some decent info but am looking for updated information. I am looking at a boat with this package and while I have no fear about the motors, I am a little concerned about the outdrives. I see that guys have had good luck in the past but am wondering about rteplacement parts, if necessary, and anything else that might be an issue. I have no first hand experience with this package. Hopefully somebody can help me out?

Thanks, Mark

Nobody hear that can relate their experiences with at least the DPX drive? I realize the volvo 600 motors are not very common, but somebody must know somebody who has DPX drives????

Thank you Lakeside for the info.

Innovation Marine built the 600's for Volvo. I believe that Volved stopped production on this package due to the drives not holding up to the 600 hp.

Yes, I am definitelt not afraid of the engines, except maybe from a resale perspective, but its hard to be afraid of Innovation built stuff. The drives are what worries me. this is what I am trying to get peoples experience with. the kind of thing you are talking about. thanks Otis311

The info I gave you came right from Innovation Marine. I was interested in the 600 hp engines they had when I was going to repower. They were selling them at about 1/2 the retail price due to Volvo dropping the program due to drive failure

Innovation Marine should be able to answer all your questions.
