To eliminate the corrosion caused by salt-water use, the double-walled stainless steel headers, water-cooled Garrett turbine housing, and air-to-water intercooler all work with engine coolant that is routed into heat-exchanger tanks mounted on the front of the engine. From there, the engine's heat is cooled by water drawn up through the hull of the boat. We were particularly impressed that the engine was fitted with a number of production-truck pieces like the Hummer H1 Alpha oil pan. It wasn't rocket science, but these guys were able to take advantage of the compact packaging and oil-control advantages designed into the pan for off-road use.
