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.

Racing Ray, nice touch!!! clean...sweet
