Trojan Boat Forum

I am in the market for a 13 meter Trojan and I have noticed this model has been equipped with 6V92T Detroit Diesel. I don't know much about Detroit Diesels, does anyone have experience with the performance of these, reliability, lifespan, etc..

Any comments would be appreciated.

I've never had one but just know they are very, very thirsty comparted to 8v71s. Love those piston sleeves for rebuilds though. TC

I have never had one in a boat but i do run one in a big truck pulling heavy hual rearly never under 80,000 pull loads up to 130,000 all over the country did do a inframe early but i do have one million and 300948 and still ticking knock on wood have a friend with one going on 3million miles on it the only thing i dont care for is the intectors seens like i go through more of them than other people do but would change a thing just keep on top of maintance and she hasent never let me down.I did a inframe on mine at 528000 for i had some adnormal ware in two cylenders they said from pulling heavy i did replace my head a year a go it was cheaper to replace than rework and got a clean bill of health i would go for it if it was me .
