1995 Ultimate Warlock 210 LXI – 650hp 6.6L Duramax Diesel - Over $60,000 Invested
Your viewing the first boat documented to be rigged with a modern GM Duramax diesel engine. In 2007 California base diesel performance specialists Pacific Performance Engineering “PPE” combined a pristine condition 21ft Warlock open bow hull, with a 2005 LLY Duramax modified to produce 650hp and 1300ft lbs of torque. The boat was fitted with custom fabricated 4” stainless steel thru hull exhaust, marine sea water pump, marine oil coolers, and a custom built water to air charge cooler. All electrical components like wiring harness, fuse blocks, and engine monitoring systems were specifically designed and fabricated to fit this engine setup.
Once the engine was ready, an out-drive with proper gearing capable of handling the Duramax power was needed. They equipped this boat with a brand new Mercury Marine Bravo1 XR stern drive unit featuring a 1.26:1 gear ratio. By mid 2007 the boat was completed and used for performance testing and advertising by PPE. In November 2007 the boat was featured in Diesel Power magazine, article available online here:

I purchased this boat in late 2009 with about 50 hours on it. During the first summer of ownership an oil system restriction was discovered, the engine was removed and disassembled for inspection. At that time we decided to do a complete overhaul, updating it with the latest in Duramax performance parts. A complete list of upgrades is shown below. Since the overhaul the boat has performed flawlessly. It's been used exclusively on lakes and rivers from Florida to Canada. It's also been used for promoting Biodiesel fuel and is recognized as the worlds fastest Biodiesel powered boat. A video of this record setting run, along with several others of the boat are available here.

The performance of this boat is unmatched by any production boats of this size. Beside running 80+ mph, the fuel mileage is incredible. Depending on chosen power settings, average mileage is between 5mpg and 7.5mpg. With an 85 gallon fuel tank, range exceeds 350 miles. Due to the sheer cost and difficulty of this boats build, today it remains one of only a few custom Duramax powered boats that I'm aware of. So it's highly unlikely you'll see another like it anywhere. To build another today would still cost over $50,000 in parts alone.
