Hello,
i would like to know the max torque of a chrysler marine inbord model lm318b 202hp with velvet drive built in 1989.
It must be matched with a v-drive (bpm v-drive 1,94:1) that accepts a maximum torque of 361 foot/lbs (490newton/meter).
Sorry for the stupid question but I can not find nothing in the web.
Thanks
mr.stringa
 
Ayuh,.... I doubt a 318 will hurt the V-drive, but that gear ratio sounds awfully low geared, for a V8,...
 
Thank Bondo for the reply.
I did not know that a v8 chrysler can not hurt a v-drive, i have to elaborate your clam. Anyway i have seen some skyboat with 5.7 v8 block (omc, may be) that have a v-drive 2:1 and a bigger propeller (but i know that this is a different block from chrysler block).
