Ok, I have a few question, Please be patient as I try and explain the best I can. I am trying to find out my gearing and hp limits on my drive and also the proper pitched propeller.
I have a DP-D1 outdrive. I have downloaded the manual. My questions pertains to what I copied and pasted below from the manual:
Overall gear ratio
ModelDP-D,DP-D1,DP-D2 ....................1.95:1,2.30:1,1.78:1
Does the above mean that the Dp-D1 has a 2.30:1 gear ratio? Or can any of the models have any of those gears listed.
If the DP-D1 has a 2.30:1 how do I go about finding the hp limits for that drive (gears). I assumed being a 454 BB motor the drive would have had 1.78:1 but reading the manual I am not sure.
The outdrive plate has a stamped serial # of 3102164619 can this be referenced anywhere? I would love to be able to find out the exact components of this drive.
I have a C6 front and rear propeller. My research has only resulted in the propeller should be a F series prop on the boat. It is a 1995 crownline 266 CCR/LTD. Each person I have talked with that has a volvo powered LTD has a F series prop on it. Mine has a C series. I want to get a better understanding of why before I start testing new props.
