[QUOTE="Barabus, post: 1385232, member: 3284"] For all you motorheads- many probably already know this but these marine engine are crazy cool. They get a lot more out of them sine they are water cooled instead of air cooled radiators. Both the engine and the turbos are water cooled which is 52 degrees right now. Also the new high pressure common rail diesels are amazing. 70,000 psi common rail with a preinjection precombustion cycle. Not sure all the mechanics but they are as quiet as gas with no black smoke. Efficient as hell. I love them until something goes wrong. The down side- weight 1500 lbs each, and cost a crazy amount if they ingest water. Rumor has it (not sure I believe it) that an injector leak cut off a techs finger like a water jet. [/QUOTE]
