View Full Version : Question about Indmar vs raptor

Looking at used Moomba mojo’s in the 2014-2016 age. I’m not too informed on the differences between the Indmar and raptor power plants. Is one notably better? Are they the same but re-branded? What are y’all’s personal experiences if you’ve owned both? Thanks I’m advance.
Indmar and raptor power plants.
The "Raptor" is an Indmar Marine engine, so there is no difference or rebranding. Ford and Indmar partnered to do a marine version of the raptor truck engine.

Ahh, I see. Kinda figured something along those lines since there isn’t much discussion about it.
Thanks.

Oh snap, not a good look for me. Might delete this whole conversation to not look like I’m too lazy to do research on my own rather than ask you all.

I think Indmar was using the GM 5.7 platforms in '14 and switched to the 6.2 Ford raptor platforms in '15.

What was the reason for the change from the Indmar side? They also sold to Malibu, but they are building their own motors from GM blocks now.

.....just order a large, Farva.
I don't want a large, I want a goddamn liter of cola.
Employee shouting to the back: Do we serve liter cola??
Farva pulling employee over counter: Liter is french for give me some fucking cola!

MB Sports and Tige also use the Indmar Raptor engines IIRC probably some others too but I don't know. Not sure why they changed but I love mine! Sounds and pulls like a beast! The Monsoon/Crusader engine in the Axis I demoed wasn't as strong and struggled to plane out when fully ballasted.

Yes, if you didn't catch this farva, a '14 would be the older GM based Indmar engine, while '15 up is the Ford 6.2 Raptor. They're both good, the Raptor is awesome. that's my opinion at least.
I swear to God I'll pistol whip the next guy who says "Shenanigans."

There's a new TV show with farva and mac, Tacoma FD, it's pretty funny, in its second season.

I think it was in part that Ford was looking to get back into the marine engine game and GM was sunsetting the 5.7L block.
