BFT225D

BFT225D

HIGH POWER

The 225 hp powerful four stroke, the BFT225D, brings a large displacement 3.6 liter V6. This narrow V6 design offers top performance and durability, as well as great fuel economy. The high output alternator provides a 90 amp alternator with 60 charging amps.

The new BFT225D provides a broader torque range and smoother power throughout the engine’s operating range. With an innovated exterior, the improvement of corrosion resistance and water intrusion makes BFT225D the right choice.

FEATURES

Variable Valve Timing and Lift Control

system provides power where and when you need it. This gives you a broader, flatter torque curve and smooth power delivery throughout the engine’s operating range. The result is a superior combination of power, torque and fuel efficiency.

Large Displacement V6

A poweful compact 24 valve Single Overhead Cam [SOHC] design. The narrow V6 design offers top performance and durability as well as great fuel economy.

Dual Stage Induction – Breathing easier improves performance

BFT 225 has a unique variable intake system which optimizes air flow to match the engine’s speed. The results are maximized combustion efficiency, increased torque, and superb fuel economy.

4-front Corrosion Protection System

A patented, “Double Sealed” multi-layered paint process, sacrificial anodes and stainless steel technology, along with waterproof connectors, all enhance corrosion protection.
