What's the big deal - these have been offered in boats from Albemarle to Shamrock for 20+ years. Volvo matches their VM diesel to the duo prop (290 through DX series) - which is IMO a much better set-up then anything Merc can muster. Just note - The deisels are around 4" longer in the block. In many cases you can not retrofit them in place of the gas motor (even big blocks). We tried two years ago on a 26' Regulator - no dice.
