Interesting. I know the old 6-71 "jimmy" was a 426 CID and was rated
at 238 hp in a standard (not marine) configuration. So I'm amazed that
the little 3-53 can obtain 100hp.
The naturally aspirated (non-turbocharged) 6-71 can produce up to 320
hp depending on the injectors used. I have the Johnson & Towers 280
hp version on my trawler.
I didn't realize that Wayne. Thanks!
But then again when I was talking the lower hp ranges, I was
mentioning "standard" version of the engines, too.
