Wasn't me but I just love looking at boat pics! Looks like you have a nice sano ride there. Good meeting you at Ming. I just wish I could have seen that bad boy make a pass!

Nice pics B509L. Do you see a need to use two hose clamps on the exhaust hose and tip? It appears you used just one. I just installed a new set of lightnings and I also used only one where exhaust hose attaches. But I have noticed a lot of builders use two. Even on a few of the installations on the new Ultra site, there are two at the header and two at the tip. I was just wondering if this is necessary? How does your set-up work? I guess if they don't leak with that blown 509 pushing through it then it should be plenty for me.

I put two clamps on my EMI Thunders. If one breaks, I'd like to know that my engine compartment won't immediately fill up with water and/or exhaust.

I believe 2 clamps are required by U.S.C.G., but who could pass a Coast Guard insp. anyways.

509, nice lookn boat. Do you have any problems with your nylocks. The threads appear a bit short. Racing Ray, minus the silicone, your exhaust looks sweet!!

Hey Racing Ray, Are those S pipes fabbed out of Mandrel Stainless? They look great. I have a set of EMI thunders with a similar setup but mine are a set of multi angle welded and ceramic coated pieces.
How "bad" was it to do those up.

All the processed foods you buy flow through tubing just like this but with about a 180 grit finish on the outside. The outsides of these are what we call a #7 finish. Pharmaceutical products are processed with this finish on the inside as well.
Ray, those re really sweet. I like the "food grade" stainless touch- you get extra show points for that.
I bought my elbows from Eddie- I thought they looked pretty good until I saw the "Ray's pharmaceutical-grade" setup.
