Overview
New to the Indmar 2007 engine line up is the Indmar 6.0L SS, it is a new high-tech inboard that delivers horses and torque that rivals the big blocks in a smaller, lighter, package. This high-tech powerhouse is based on the new Gen IV Vortec 6000 truck engine. It's brain is Delphi's most advanced water resistant ECM (Electronic Control Module) the MEFI-5 hardware/software system. The MEFI-5 system is custom calibrated by Indmar to provide maximum performance and drive ability. By custom calibrating the ECM to match hull design requirements and the intended boat application this process allows boat and motor to perform as one seamless unit. The three-dimensional system precisely manages fuel, ignition and air. It is programmed to deliver the power skiers' and wake boarders' need, plus the classic turnkey starts, unhesitating dependability and fuel efficiency that only Indmar can deliver.
Because of Indmar's advanced programming of the 6.0L SS offers full power potential across the board; from initial acceleration (bottom end) through mid-range all the way to very strong top end performance.
The Indmar 6.0L SS is a multi-port EFI inboard engine marinized specifically for saltwater applications, such as bay runabouts, small cruisers, sportfish and workboats.
The Indmar 6.0L SS offers even more with Indmar's ETC system (Electronic throttle and cruise) now standard. The Indmar developed system allows the helm throttle control to electronically connect to the engine's ECM. Throttle response is quick and smooth. The Electronic Throttle Control with Cruise feature is a bonus for everyone from cruising families to fishermen, wake boarders to water skiers.
Full freshwater cooling is standard. Because it is a totally closed system, including exhaust manifolds, saltwater never enters the engine system. Coolant tanks use a propylene glycol/water mix and are easily accessible for filling and maintenance.
Marinized components are all E-Coated for optimum protection against corrosion. Unlike industry standard paint, E-Coat is an advanced process that completely covers both exterior and internal surfaces, creating a permanent chemical bond between metal and paint. It will not peel or crack.
Knowledgeable saltwater boaters will appreciate Indmar's detailed touches, such as using stainless steel for all external engine fasteners; high-mounted starters and alternators with remote oil filters; bronze, naval-grade crankshaft-driven water pumps.
The new 6.0L SS is now available to OEM builders in standard, semi-custom and private-label configurations.
The Indmar 6.0L SS carries the Indmar's 3-year limited warranty that includes fuel and electrical systems.
