Bayliner 2655

wrote: That's too bad. The size difference is not as much as people think. A few more inches on the front, sides, and top. I think you mean a bravo 3. Volvo has a dual prop drive as well. Those will help and in combination with a 5.7 probably work well on this boat. I'm guessing that adds 6 to 8 grand to the base price though. A 5.0 with an alpha II would suck. IMHO, the ideal engine would be the Mercruiser 6.2L MPI with a Bravo 3 duo-prop. We have that combo on our Searay 270, and at 320 hp it is a strong little engine. I believe that it's based on a stroked small block. The Bayliner in question has got to be seriously under powered with a single 5.0L, as demonstrated by the one reviewer who is cruising at 4500 RPM. That is a sure recipe for premature engine failure. |
