Hello, we have a 1988 PT 40 with a Detroit Diesel 8V92. Does anybody know the
Engine speed and horsepower?
ENGINE SPEED I suspect 2100 RPM but need to verify
HORSEPOWER I suspect 450 HP but need to verify
Thanks!

Robert, My memory is that 2100 and 475 are the right numbers. Not 100% sure
since I sold my 89 PT 40 about five years ago . Mike McMahan 96 42' Wanderlodge

475HP would be normal for the '88 WB, but I don't know about the narrow body.
Which do you have?
Again for the WB, typically you will find the engine governed by the DDEC I at
2100 or so under acceleration. Generally OK to go as high as 2300 when
decelerating.
RPMs probably the same on the narrow body, but I don't know how it is/was
governed (did it have DDEC?)
