Default Paging Traviss

Traviss, I would like to talk to you about the installation and plumbing set up of the Stainless Marine exhaust on your boat. Please call 716-583-7833. I would like some real world opinions.
Thanks, Dave

Sorry about that! I thought I read somewhere on here that you were using the Stainless Marine.

Traviss,

How did you mount the interrupt and oil filter bracket?

Thanks

If you look at the pic on the left side I have my oil filter mounted on the battery box. What I did with the interrupt was mounted it up up under the back of the transom, can't even see it. I did all this to clean up the motor looks. I didn't like the cheap brackets emi sent to mount these two things.

Thanks, it does look nice. I just pulled the old manifolds off mine, and thinking EMI or Revolution marine. I passed on a set of tubular headers, I don't want to worry about cracks.

Do you like that exhaust? I am in the market for exhaust, and it looks as its going to be between the revolution marine, or the EMI's like yours. If I recall you run a large cam, I have a 228@ 050 112LSA (Crane 284H) with Rhoades lifters so I don't think reversion would be a problem for me with "your" exhaust.

Revolutons are cheaper, but I don't know about reversion. I am sick of milkshake. I now have a 5 gallon gas can full of it!

What is your boat? From the pic it looks very similar to a Four Winns Liberator.

i love the EMI's espessically with the longer stainless risers. I run a solid roller, 250/258 duration, 598/598 lift on a 112. Never have any problems with reversion, but I also idle around 850-900 rpm. Its not to bad I just have to start it in gear.

The boat is a 1989 powerplay (powerquest) 185XL. its about 18 1/2' long and around 2900 lbs. heavy boat and its nice cause It only is 7 1/2' wide.
