Cat repower
I'm looking to repower my old cat I've just decided to start again, now I have a choice 2x 300x 1999 nice reasonable price
2x300xs seriously more than I was hoping to spend
or be patient and wait to find a tidy set of 260s
What would you do ?? Please all advise would be appreciated

The 300 opti's will be more economical at the pump.........

Did they make 300X in 99? In any case it is no contest. The 300X is an incredible engine. Not as snappy as the 260. but they are really 330hp and are much faster top end. Not as quick as the 260 but faster. The 300x will last much longer than the 260 time bombs.

It's a 26 ft puma cat build 1990 she's very old but we have re structured the boat with strength in mind and as I said I have a couple of option to re power my favourite and best price is the 300x
I believe they are 1 1999 and the other is 2001 ive not seen these motors over here infactvthey are the only ones I've ever seen so don't really know much about them but do like what I'm hearing, thank you so far but still would like opinions on them cheers Carl,
