VOLVO PENTA AQUAMATICV8-320 EVC239 kW (320 hp)Availablewith Joystick!V-8 performance formarine useAn advanced V-8 gasoline enginefor performance powerboats. With5.7 liter displacement and eightcylinders, this engine deliversloads of torque and power acrossthe entire speed range. The computercontrolled fuel managementsystem produces maximum power,reduced emissions and ultimatereliability, enhancing the entireboating experience. This modernengine is a perfect match for thetwin-propeller Duoprop drive.Shown with optional freshwater coolingWorld-class performanceThe advanced fuel management systemcombines sophisticated engine managementstrategies with proven fuel andcontrol system components to producebetter fuel mileage, increased reliabilityand lower emissions. All contribute toworld-class boating performance.The Multi Port Fuel Injection system ismonitored and controlled by an enginecomputer (ECM), giving the following advantages:more responsive and smootheracceleration, excellent turnkey starts inall weather conditions, smooth reliableidling, reduced fuel consumption, andimproved control of emissions.Robust, reliableA 5.7 liter gasoline engine in a V-8 configuration,featuring a cast iron block andcylinder heads for durability and corrosionresistance. Critical engine componentsare designed and constructed forthe rigors of the marine environment.Seawater pump, oil filter, fuel filter, andcoolant tank are located on the front ofthe engine for easy service access. Servicepoints are color coded.Exhaust system developed for the marineenvironment, featuring EDP treated manifoldsand risers for increased longevityand maximized flow for increased power.EVC-EThe next generation of the provenElectronic Vessel Control adds furtherenhancements to the driver experience.E-key, E-key remote and an integratedAutopilot system are now offered as optionsfor EVC.Ergonomically designed controls engagesmoothly and provide fingertip precisionwhen shifting. Pushbuttons integrated onthe controls give easy access to optionalfunctions such as Power Trim Assist, TowMode, and Single Lever Control.Complete the helm with your choice ofeasy to read gauges and displays, includinga seven inch color display. Addthe trip computer function for accuratefuel management and minimized environmentalimpact. Engine synchronization isstandard on twin installations.Duoprop or Aquamatic sterndriveThe drives are equipped with a coneclutch for easy, smooth shifting, patternmatchedspiral bevel gears for optimumstrength and minimum gear noise, anda break-away shaft coupling to minimizecostly drive repairs.State of the art corrosion protection isachieved with a 23 step paint process,the drive is further protected by sacrificialanodes. Active Corrosion Protection isavailable as an option.Both drives feature exhaust outletsthrough the propeller hub and cavitationplate for decreased noise and vibration.The Duoprop drive with its twin counterrotatingpropellers produces unbeatablespeed, acceleration, steering and fueleconomy characteristics. A full range ofstainless steel propeller sets are offered.The Aquamatic SX single propeller drivefeatures a full line of stainless steel oraluminum propellers in either right-hand orleft-hand rotation.The drives are equipped with an easilycontrolled hydraulic power trim systemfor obtaining the best running positionat different sea and load conditions. Formaximum driving comfort, power steeringis standard on all gasoline engines.
