Been running the BZM's for a while now. They run good and are really reliable.

As you likely are aware bzm are quality ..
I have seen them perform in the marine scene and they are a strong engine,,although in comparison to a strong Zenoah or TKing the BZM will drop some in topend speed..They could do with a little work internally.
Just from my own opinion..
Your boat is great..

It's nice to hear, that Zenoah and TK maybe some more holds the line

 

[Jarema Malek]

Thank You for your opinions.I was told by few people that owned QD zenoah TK and bzm and they said bzm are stronger.i had modded zenoah 29.5 so i think when i have boat in water tuned i can compare .Hope can test soon

I watched a BZM run yesterday. After seeing it run it is on my list to purchase. They are bigger and heavier than a Zenoah but they scream.

Buckshot, how does the BZM compare to the last generation 27Rs motor? Asking for a friend.

Both are great! For a hydro/rigger the CMB is a better fit. The BZM is a stump puller in a mono.

Buckshot how do you have your cooling ports set up? There are multiple ports for cooling and was curious if you have tried different routings on your set ups. Which ones are you blocking off?

I run two lines in and two line out using a duel pick up rudder.
One in at the bottom of the case under the reed block and one in on the side of the cylinder above the carb.
Two outlets from the water jacket.

I have my set up the same as Buck. I was able to find some 6mm banjo fittings for the water exit on the head. I started off with only one line going into the case and 2 out the head. I had to restrict the outlet to keep case full and still needed more cooling. Then switched it over to a dual pickup.
