From: "Ken Adrian" <ken.adrian@home.com> To: "TWL" <trawler-world-list@samurai.com> Subject: Cummins 300hp Hello list I have recently(a year ago) purchased a 46' trawler equipped with = twin 300hp Cummins engines. I hesitate to run the Engines at any rpm over about 1800 even taking = into consideration the fact that the governors are set at 3200 rpm.(Yes = I just had to go that high just once to see where they were). If anyone on this list has any experience with these motors I would love = to here from them. The Motors are late 60s Vintage. Thanks Ken Adrian Nanaimo B.C.
