Attention: TDR Forum Junkies 
I plan to install 2 cummins in my offshore powerboat and was offered 2 bus engines which are 12 v 6BT´s with the old style injection pump and Hx 35´s on them without intercoolers.
They have been regularly serviced and are rated at 160 hp. any ideas of the power potential without changing the pumps (and pumps gears , front cover and so forth)
Who offeres parts to beef´em up a little. the boat would be doing ok with 300 hp.
any experiences?? Thanx in advance Thomas Tork
By the way the engines come with a huge Allison 5 speed fully hydraulic transmission. Did anyone make that fit in a Ram without major welding and cutting??is it worthwhile if the engine output is around 450 HP and the 47rh keeps braking down. How much power do they absorb and is there any aftermarket converter available???
