How much will the upgrade of a diesel outboard be compared to just the ordinary gas any idea?

If Im seeing this right, you guys need to work on a gear ratio to match your lower RPM, well, at least for the performance side anyway.

Not really, depending on the torque #'s, they will just run bigger Pitch props. The Mystic SL700 runs 62" of prop pitch, with 2% of prop slip!

ME,
Very impressive project, looks very promising!

Can't wait to see some of the performance #'s
Congrats!
Dean

Still Working on the price of both the retro-fit kit and the full production version. Should know exact price within the next month.

very cool!
i look forward to seeing more info.
will you be at any of the upcoming boat shows?
a pair of 3.0s would work real nice on a heavy CC like an Ocean Master.
