I spoke with Cobalt boats. Apparently it’s just a different intake manifold… and exhaust so they say. But this one is indeed a 7.4LX MPI Bravo 1. Thank you all for the help. If anyone else does have any info on an LX as opposed to regular 7.4L
Thank you Sir. I realize it is not a Magnum. Hoping the thru hull will still sound somewhat good. Lol.
It being a Gen V LX does the X signify anything if importance? From what I’m reading it’s a 330hp engine? Or 310 I see multiple options.
Very good information thank you. Ah. Wish it had the mag. Less work for me. From research I see don’t even bother hopping up the 7.4L and just save for a 502. Any chance anyone can look at the serial number and know where to call or input it to decode?
EDIT*** Upon research all above posts are...
Thank you kindly Sir. I called again. I have the serial number where would I be able to input it and find out if it has a 454mag or not. I asked the seller he said if that’s an option that they chose the “biggest engine” available. Pics attached of serial number.
Hello,
My names Jordan. I own a mechanic shop up in Sudbury Ontario Canada.
I recently just purchased this boat. Link below. I pick it up this weekend. It’s always been stored and serviced since new (I believe) at Walkers Point Marina in Ontario.
Just looking for any insight or quick...
Thank you I love the last quote lol. Definitely acknowledging the fact it will be anything but cheap. I’m prepared. I know very well I can spend thounsands in a weekend if I get on it. Which is not the plan at all. I don’t plan to be cruising long distances it’s more so for going to camp and...
Definitely appreciate it. Thank you. I will keep looking for newer but no outboards. Not trying to be that guy just. I definitely know you’re looking out. If I can’t find a good big block v8 that ya’ll accept or think is worthy I won’t get a boat at all until I can save for a new inboard.
Okay. Yes that makes sense thank you Sir. Sorry for the confusion. I don’t see any carpet in the boat unless i’m missing something it looks almost composite or plastic decking?
EDIT it says SEA-DECK. Is that an alternative to carpet?
Yeah that’s crazy! We got one guy up here he owns Northern RV he has a boat like that. It’s a 41’ with 4 325’s on the back. I think it’s a NORTECH or something like that. Crazy boat. I personally am not a fan of outboards what so ever lol. I love the look of inboards. But I know they are getting...
