Hi all
I have a 40' searay
that needs engines. Currently it has 454's


Besides the diesels, your probably looking at struts,
shafts, props and probably a reduction gear.

If this were your boat, would you re-do the existing 454's and beef
them up a little?

Or put a pair of bigger 502's in it

Neither. Repower with diesels....

What is the cost of a pair of diesels that will give comparable speed as a
pair of 7.4L gasoline engines?
