Yes. Please. Some real numbers. Like fuel consumption what rpm cruising. What size prop. Etc. i have an 2001 OM 613 CDI straight 6 cyl. Same as the 606 but with common rail. I found and bought a stand alone ECU in Europe. Made for this particular engine . Its a plug and play setup. Uses the factory engine harness. I can tune it upwards of 350hp.wirh the stock engine internals. The idea is to put it in a boat and get rid of that big boat anchor 1185 lbs Mercruiser vs 585 lbs OM613. Thanks.
I have been thinking of this exact same style swap setup and I'm glad to see it work out so well! I bet this engine would run great for a big heavy cabin cruiser like that and mileage would prolly double if not more than that!!!! Awesome to see you guys get it done and very clean looking! Keep up the good work guys and thank you for the inspiration!!!!!
OM-606 Diesels are legendary, especially when fitted to burn-out 🔥 monsters like W-201 190-D or W-124...and now on a boat...epic. Can your 606 boat do burnouts? 🤣 Am sure the water cooled charge air intercooler will provide denser air = more boost = more power baby!
Wow great design one thing I’d do abit different is have the exhaust coming out of the turbo point up and then drop down and have the water mix at the bottom of the dip almost all marine diesel do something similar to stop water from back flowing into your exhaust turbo or cylinder but regardless sweet build tho love the boat
I am currently converting my 24ft fourwinns liberator, the 8.2ltr big block was junk and I am building an om606. I have made the conversion plate to fit the OMC bell housing, the flywheel is made and I am hakfway through the watercooled exhaust 🙂
Sounds good! If you follow the OM606 Superturbo FB page, don't be shy to update, there is a lot of people with knowledge and experience with these engines
Nice! Most guys here just put in the Volvo Penta diesel with it's outdrive and everything. Most common is the D4, 3.7 litre 4 cylinder, Starts at 150hp and goes all the way up to 320hp. Super light on diesel. The 5.5 litre 6 cylinder can do 480hp.
Hey man, sick video and great conversion! 😍 I‘m thinking off a similar conversion to a sea ray srv 220 cc. Did you encounter any issues with the stern drive? My potential boat has a alpha one gen 1, thus I’m a bit afraid of braiking it with the om606‘s tourqe? And how much money did you spend on the cooling? I’m not sure if I should go for an water cooled exhaust manifold including a heat exchanger or if I should get a separate exchanger or both. Best, Leo :)
fantastic work. I'm converting my boat to an om648. Everything is working so far, but I don't know how to solve the problem with the ignition breaker for reverse gear.
But someone suggested to wire up the original MerCruiser ignition switch to the solenoid for shutting off engine, to give it a short signal to “cut engine”
Hallo Super Arbeit 👌 Hast du auch den Antrieb gewechselt und die Propeller denn ich hab auch dieses Projekt vor und weiß nicht ob der gleiche Antrieb und die Propeller die gleiche Leistung erbringen ?
Great video. I've been tossing up something very similar... is the engine stock internally or has it been rebuilt?? Those Mercury V8's are reliable but very lazy in terms of power. Once again great job
Thank you Engine is fully stock internally, that's also another reason we aren't pushing it past 300hp. As it would put way too much unnecessary stress, on the engine and outdrive. They are known to be pretty reliable around 450hp in cars, but being in a boat with full load all the time, I don't think it would last.
@@KacperR7 In industrial applications diesels are often running at full tilt 24/7. Because you have less rpm variations, the stress, wear and tear is less. But it is smart to not push it too much, which does not seem to be neccessary anyway.
Beautiful work🤩 I am dreaming of taking on a similiar project one day. As you are using alpha are you shutting off the engine before you shift it in gear and then start the engine in gear? Here on UA-cam you can see another OM606 marine engine from Jari Kåhlman who implemented a system to make the engine shut off for a split second during shifting in order to protect the outdrive. To my understanding similiar system is implemented from factory to mercruiser engine + alpha outdrive systems which is called mercruiser shift switch. Bravos don't have this feature from factory as they are more sturdy. In case you knew all this and shift the alpha when engine is running, you are not worried about it breaking or you don't think it will break?
Thank you! Currently not doing anything to prevent damage while shifting into gear. As the idle rpm's are fairly low, it doesn't give that big of a "clunk" when shifting into gear, feels similar to when the merc engine was in. But certainly something we thought about! The mercruiser switch could be implemented, onto the solenoid that is used for switching off the engine, just running the signal for a split second to further drop RPM, and we might play around with that this summer!
The music killed this. let's hear the engine.
The Best video with Disel engine Swap for Boat…Make please more video with this boat…top speed, fuel consumption other work you did…thank you
Thank you, I will make sure to do an update this summer!
@@KacperR7This would be great, please do it. Can you give us some quick numbers?
That's one tidy job, @KacperR7. Like it.
My 1990 Maxum 2100 is getting OM648 3.2L engine fitted.

Hi, we have watercooled exhaust manifolds complete with watercooled turbo available for the Om606. Billet anti corrosion aluminium.
@@alexanderonderwater6059 where do i find this product?

Świetny projekt!!! Bravo!!!! Pozdrawiam serdecznie
Bravo
Me ha encantado el vídeo. Donde consiguió la bomba de gasoil y demas accesorios esperando 2 parte.

In usa?
The OM606 can do more that 480 and it is only 3.0L
Where did you find that adapter carrier for the engine shaft ? Cant find it anywhere
Where did you get the flange? The oval to round seems to be a task to find without spending $300+
What did you do with the oil pan? I ques I needs to be bigger than in the car
Why didn't changed the prop?
How many Liters it take in a Hour? Normal driving.. or in difference to the V8
That is a lovely clean conversion. Often you see the parts whacked together which also works, but looks like some improvised mess. Not this one 👍.

For now we don’t do anything, and with the low idle it’s not that big of a ”clunk” when switching gears
But someone suggested to wire up the original MerCruiser ignition switch to the solenoid for shutting off engine, to give it a short signal to “cut engine”
Lemme know when you sell it, I WANT IT!!
change it to hx52 competition
also buy a boosted ecu:D
Hi, did you make the adapter plate yourself, or buy it?
I have not no, you can source theM a lot of places. I got mine from DPUK
cześć jesteś z PL?
The Alpha will fail soon too much torque on the sterndrive😅.
Hallo
Super Arbeit 👌
Hast du auch den Antrieb gewechselt und die Propeller denn ich hab auch dieses Projekt vor und weiß nicht ob der gleiche Antrieb und die Propeller die gleiche Leistung erbringen ?

For now it is the same outdrive and propeller. We will do more testing in ~1month
@@KacperR7 Super arbeit 👍👍
was für ein antrieb hast du??
Wie schnell war das boot??
Danke im voraus
Can you make and sell me all the parts??? I am pulling out a 606 this week that has a bent rod gonna build it and do this!

@KacperR7 it's quite the opposite. Diesels are designed to "work' under load so being in a boat under constant load is perfect. Great job

You need British fuel pump .
No no, Dieselmeken works flawlessly!
