GREAT NEWS!: Banks Marine has designed and will soon offer the only factory-authorized marine-version of the mighty GM Duramax 6.6-liter diesel V-8. Banks legendary performance reputation was first earned in the high-performance marine engine business in the '60s'. Since that time world, national, state, and local speed and endurance records have all fallen to Banks Marine engine-equipped boats. Now, applying the same engineering expertise that motivates the 1,200-horsepower Duramax 6.6L V-8 in their record-setting drag racing, and land speed record competition vehicles, Banks Marine has built the ultimate, fully-marinized, GMC factory-authorized version. Compact and muscular, this twin-turbo engine combines V-8 power and packaging in a design that packs more outright efficiency into every pound and every square foot of engine bay than any "old school" engine. A giant hit at this year's Miami International Boat Show, the Banks Marine Duramax V-8 engines was constantly surrounded by crowds, photographed non-stop the press, and (best of all) no longer just a "design concept".
