6LPA-STP
Yanmar 6LPA-STP: 315 hp (232 kW) at 3800 rpm, 4.163-litre turbocharged, intercooled six-cylinder marine diesel with four valves per cylinder, the original 6LPA high-output rating.
The 6LPA replaced the 6LP around 2001-2002. It keeps the 4.163-litre, 94 x 100 mm six-cylinder, belt-driven overhead-cam layout with turbocharger, intercooler and boost-compensated distributor-type injection pump. The DTP has two valves per cylinder. The STP adds a four-valve head, gallery-cooled pistons and a larger oil cooler, which Yanmar's leaflet calls a 'go fast package'. Yanmar did not supply a gear. It recommended ZF63A (8-degree angle), ZF63 (parallel) or ZF63IV (V-drive) gears. The -ZP versions were prepared for MerCruiser Bravo sterndrives.
The STP replaced the 300 hp 6LP-STE and was later superseded by the 6LPA-STP2, which has the same 315 hp rating and 408 kg weight. The sterndrive version was the 6LPA-STZP.
