Re: A little crazy?

I will post more pics when I get a chance, but I'm not very tech savvy, so it won't be for awhile. I don't know how to shrink them on my phone. So I have to download onto the computer, then shrink them down to make them small enough to post. It usually takes me a few hours to do, so bear with me.

Re: A little crazy?

LCR, did you purchase all the Mercruiser stuff new or did you buy a donor boat for it?
I would be very interested, as I'm sure many others are as well, in seeing all that you have done with your 32.

Re: A little crazy?

That's AWESOME LCR! What year is your 32? What kind of rpm for 30mph?

Re: A little crazy?

I also did end up moving the helm bulkhead forward 18 inches, shortening up my cabin. All so I could install another 130 gallon fuel tank. Bringing my total capacity to 280 gallons.

Re: A little crazy?

I was able to come across the Mercury Enertia Eco 16x19 props for my Bravo 1 outdrives that I had been wanting to try. They performed as I had hoped for my speed and efficiency, but I'm still struggling with cavitation while trimming out. I will figure that out when I get a newer set of outdrives, a...

Re: A little crazy?

At 3k rpm while fully loaded and at 29-30 mph it burns around 24-25ish gallons an hour for 1.15 to 1.2 mpg. When I am light, it bumps up to 1.3. If I drop it the rpm to 2800 while light, I get 1.4 mpg at 27-28 mph. According to my Garmin flow meters. I have a few pics showing my running numbers that...

Re: Chrysler 318 Oil Pan Gasket

Try to contact Lakeland Auto and Marine in Port Clinton Ohio. From the videos I have seen on YouTube, he has rebuilt a fair amount of Chrysler engines and should have a source. He does great work from what I have watched!

Re: One wire alternator

All Mercruiser alternators are the same, whether used on a cw or ccw rotation engine . I'm guessing its the same for whatever engine brand you have. I would bet that there is a wiring problem or just a bad alternator, new or not. I installed a pair of one wire Arco brand alternators on a set of 318 ...

Re: Ignition wiring

You can try to look through old posts if anyone had a diagram. I would like to help, but I haven't come across any in my travels.

Re: Install VEE birth dimmable LED light strip huge difference.

That sure did light up the V berth! I can see myself ordering something similar, thanks for posting the video.
