Are you running mufflers or straight open tips? Did you notice a bid difference in the sound? Little more rumble at idle? I am looking in to getting a set for my 30 and would like to hear more about how your install went...any problems...and when you run if you notice any gains or better performance. Any and all info would be great...Thanks

Put the boat in today. It ran great. It doesnt seem much louder idling at the dock but with the swim platform the way it is on a fountain its hard to tell. My wife was working in the yard when i blasted down river and she said it sounded awsome. 78 was the best ive ever got out of it before. Today i hit 81 before the rev limiters went off. Thats with a full tank of last years stabalized gas in it. Im going to run it some more and get some fresh gas in it before i decide what to do too the props. The torque has improved alot. Much better out the hole and from 3500 to WOT alot quicker. And no leaks at all so im very satisfied. ill get some pics posted on here soon.

How did the mid-range improve MPH wise? Cruise Ect.... What are the cost per engine? What is the warranty situation. I talked to CMI about there headers and they said theat the warranty stays in full effect for everything besides water reversion. Is this the same with EMI?

Glad to hear everyting went well and you had good results. I would like to see some pics of the install. Also did you install them yourself? how long did it take? Im thinking this is the way to go.

Thanks

Yes they do, here is the link to my site for BB manifolds with standard risers and with Stainless Steel risers. They are not that difficult to install if you decide to do it yourself and I am certain that you could find someone to install them in the LOTO area if you choose not too.
EMI Big Block Manifolds with Stainless Steel Risers

We have never had a dissatisfied customer on any set of EMI manifolds that I have sold. Let me know if you have anymore questions.
Thanks,
Don B.

As I mentioned above the install is not that difficult, but I would plan on at least a day, possibly two since you are working with twins.
Both EMI and Triad Performance Marine will provide you with tech. support during the install just in case you decide to do it yourself.
Thanks!
