Anybody ever consider repowering gas to deisel on a 350 IO?
I am in the midst of repowering from 305s to diesel. I chose to go with an older engine, Volvo AD31P-A, with DP-E drives. I was able to source one new and one low hour engine, which I had the top end rebuilt to verify the overall condition of the engine. This is a twins setup and has cost me less than what a new gas setup would have cost me. I did a lot of research before getting into this and have taken my time to source the parts. If you've got the time and patience, this is the way to go! Hopefully, the repower will be complete in the next month or two.

To O-fishal, if you got more speed, you installed moire horsepower, what makes that comparison valid then? My comments were like for like. And, again, I LOVE diesels. that was not my point, I just believe you cannot make an economic case in most pleasurecraft applications. Commercial? Absolutely!
