I would love a "Y" pipe. We will be upgrading in about 4 years. I'm getting a new car next year, then once that's paid off, we upgrade to a new boat. So far this riser fix will only be costing about $70, not including the materials for the muffler. |

Do a search, I just did a repair on my muffler like that.

Reason #10001 for old boats. No mufflers equals no muffler repair.

Getting the boat back today from the upholstery lady and I'll be putting the risers back on. I just want to make sure I am correct in that the port to block off is the rear port on the top of the exhaust manifold correct?

JP,
Yes, you are correct that the port blocked is the aft port. Don't forget the pictures! |

Got the boat back late this evening. I managed to get the risers on. I cleaned the surfaces and mounted the gaskets. I purchased a small tube of the gasket maker, but literally only got like an inch worth of material out of it. The brand new tube was empty. Go figure.
So I put the gaskets on dry and torqued the bolts to 24 ft lbs. Oh yeah, I also put anti-seize on the threads. I'll put the rest of the exhaust back on later this week. Also had the carpet replaced and some holes put into the bimini to allow for my fly high to mount and still have shade. |
