hi all,
i'm from france, so i apologize by advance for my english level ....
I have a chris craft crowne 282 , powered by an OMC 454 (carb , 330 HP) with a king cobra on (ratio 1.43).
I realize that OMC parts are NLA, so i want to put a volvo sx DPS on it.
I found a dps sterdrive, in a good shape.
The ratio is 1.51 , and the propellers set is F4 ( F : 38511461 / R : 3851474 )
The dps saler told me his engine (a 5.0L OMC) reached more than 5000 rpm with that drive ...
If a 5.0L reach more than 5000 rpm, does my 454 will not get higher rpm ?
The dps saler can sale me the drive with F7 propeller set if needed.
Does this ratio and prop size match for my 454 ?
What is the ideal ratio and prop size for my configuration ?
PS : i read english better than i write it :s
Thanks by advance !
