I have 2 370B Cummins on order right now for a 32 Blackfin, I wouldn't even consider trying to shoe-horn one into my inboard Seacraft. That Steyr sounds very interesting though!

I believe someone here on CSC repowered with a Steyr.

I have done research on the Steyr AND what the original Volvo weight in my 23SF. The weight for the originally installed volvo diesel in a 23 was around 1100 lbs. The Steyr is a great German motor with a very small dealer network. It is the superior motor. I was quoted 11-12K for a decent used motor and 23K+ on a new one. I have a friend with a 27 Ocean Master with that Steyr in it.

Hopefully I won't have to re-power the boat anytime soon, but if I do the Steyr is the direction I'm going to go.
