    Pair Cummins VT8-370M

    A friend of mine is repowering and has a pair of RTO Cummins 370's with trans for sale. These are 1969/1970 vintage out of a Trumpy motor yacht, 5000 well maintained hours. One trans is sick, the other is fine. I think they're Capitals.

    Please note that these are not "903's" These are 785 cu inch 370 HP V-8's.

    I think he also has a good running 15kw Onan, but I don't know the details on that.

    Location is Great Bridge, Va. I don't know prices. Send me a PM and I will put you directly in touch with the seller.

    If they are too big I know where some 8V53's are. Thats a big engine for under 400 HP.

    Hatteras put some VT8-370M's in some 53MY's. I looked at a 1972 that had those engines.

    Indeed...and some 43 DC's among others. That's why I posted these here. Parts are scarce and pricey. If I had a boat with these engines, I would invest in some spares.

    Where these the 370's that were used in the series 1 45's and the 44 strikers back in the early 70's?
