671's vs 454's

Post by MADSIERRA »

i have been on a couple of 10 meters with the 454's but am going to look at a 11 meter with the 671's in it. Is the fuel milege any better on the 671's and is the exhaust any louder or quieter on them? thanks

Even thought the 11 meter is more boat the mileage will be better with the diesels and a faster cruse ( and top end ) The 671 is a loud engine ( intake noise ) The last Trojan I was on with a 671 was not bad , it was a 12 meter and I believe not as loud as a 10 meter . But that was a long time ago so I maybe wrong on the noise factor and how well Trojan dealt with it .
