2009 rz4 with pcm 409

[zad0030]

http://www.pcmengines.com/engines.php

Website list the prop rotation for each engine:

Z-409 6.0L is LH
EX-343 5.7L is LH & RH
Passport 275 5.0L is LH & RH

My guess would be that Tige is using all LH.

Post some pictures of the wake when you get a chance. Great boat, enjoy it!

Did you stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night?

Why, Yes. What else do you want to know?

The PCM ZR 409 is the new 6.0L that replaces the ZR6-390. The link to the current brochure on the PCM site is right now. Also the new ZR 409 info is up on the PCM web site.

Wow 48mph is impressive IMO with full ballast and load. Sounds like that PCM is a strong motor.

I wonder if the feature/option list will make an appearance in the future?

If I was a betting man...I would take that bet.

Well, I for one am glad we had the rest of the new site to peruse rather than waiting for the option feature! So kudos on that decision.

Do you have any pics of the ballast valves and how it works?

No one seems to know how much weight the new ballast holds, any idea? You might have to truck the boat with full ballast to a truck stop, weigh it and then dump the water, then weigh it again. Could you do that for us please?

ok thats crazy. im sure it is 900 but i want to know how fast it fills and if they are using gate valves on the back or something like that.

Jake,

There is some info on other threads about the new ballast system, but here is the deal: There are 3 inch holes in the transom of the boat that go into an enclosed portion of the hull. You hit a button, and the gate valve opens and within 30 seconds, you have 400 pounds or more in that part of your hull. To empty, you open the valve and drive away, just close the valve before you come off of plane or it will refill as soon as you stop. I think it deserves a lot of hype. It can all be under the floor.

If it lives up to its billing, I think this is the single greatest thing for Tige in recent years, with the PCM upgrade a close second.

Thanks for updating. Also please note that if you go to the following web site http://www.tige.com/downloads.php and go to the owners manual(page 1-7) under tige GM vortec engines, it talks about marine power and not PCM May want to change this also. Under the specification section Need to change the spec on the RZ4 to show the 4485 weight and not 3954. It cant be only 54 lbs more than the RZ2.

on my 09 there are 3 tanks u hit a swith and the pumps fill in about 5 min and flip the swithes down and they empty in in about 5 min ,works perfect,,,

[jake's02-22i]

What type of pumps are they and is it a manifold or different thru hulls for each pump? Was it factory installed or did your dealership do it.sorry for all the questions.

[SPOLK69]

factory
