Indmar 6.2L Ford Based Engines
 
The Indmar 6.2L Fords (400, 440, 575) have been on the market for close to a year now. Any good or bad experiences with the product that anyone wants to share?

Absolutely LOVE my 400 6.2 I get really good economy for a wake boat and it takes any amount of weight I want to throw at it. No bad Experience's I can note!

I have 50 hrs on mine (400) and have loved it. It will handle just about any weight you can put in it. I have mine in a 23 ft boat and when loaded with #4000 of ballast can get around 6.5gph out of it. Nothing but good things here too and I will say I am not a huge Ford fan.

I have 37 hours on mine and so far I am also very happy with no issues.

We are just over 70 hours and I honestly didn't believe it was possible to get even better fuel economy than I had before. We have monitored every gallon since we got the boat and monitored the usage all the way through the West Coast Wakesurf Open.

This is a 2015 Tige Z3 with AVX custom surf sacs, about 3600 lbs of water ballast plus people with the Indmar Raptor 400.

Below is the video, and here is the kept up to date fuel log if you want the fine details: http://bit.ly/z3-gas

We have a 2015 Tige Z3 with AVX, I have noticed we run very similar numbers to ragboy. a little closer to 4.2 but super close!
