View Full Version : VOlvo SX drives
Hey does anyone know the gear ratio on these drives that will work on Donzi classics? Wondering about one I have come across that is 1.78. Didn't know if this was the lowest ratio available now by Volvo or if they still make one around 1.62 anymore.
If anyone knows, please reply.
thanks,
Terrell

I think the SX is available in something around a 1.5:1. You'll need a lot of pitch on your prop for a 1.78:1 ratio and a small-block V-8.
I am pretty sure the OEM's work with Volvo to match the drive to boat weight, if you can find one from a light boat it more than likely will be a 1.5 or lower. The ratios: 1.43, 1.51,1.60, 1.66, 1.78,1.85,1.95 and 22:23. The 22:23 really throws me, must be a high speed ap.
Ok OK me dummy read further the 22:23 is the upper they do the ratio changes in the lower.
