The power of a big block in the size of a small block... That's what a 6.0L Vortec marine engine is. This complete 6.0L engine is only one inch wider and one inch longer than a complete 5.7L engine, yet delivers a whopping 375hp @ 5200 rpm with 492 foot-pounds of torque. A very popular engine upgrade in tournament wakeboard boats because of its compact size and powerful torque. This 6.0L engine has been available for ski and wakeboard boats (Mastercraft, Ski Nautique, Tige, etc.) for the last 6 years and is now available as a repower option. This 6.0L package shown here is designed to replace inboard marine applications. Includes bell housing and closed cooling. It is also available for sterndrive applications. Here are a few of the features and benefits of this 6.0L Vortec engine: Aluminum cylinder heads and closed cooling are standard, engine is self timing and requires no periodic maintenence other than replacing spark plugs and ignition wires. Includes MP2K performance exhaust manifolds and risers that have been specifically tuned to facilitate a higher torque and a smoother flow of exhaust from the engine. These hi-performance exhaust manifolds also have a special "blocking baffle" that greatly reduces possible water reversion (water reversion is detrimental and possibly catastrophic to a marine engine). Coil-near-plug ignition, crankshaft sensor, and eight ignition coils make it a distributorless ignition system. This engine package and 100% of the components are brand new includes a 2-year factory warranty. If you have an existing inboard or sterndrive engine set-up, call us to see if this package is right for you! This engine package includes:
