Then, just run a "T" to a dump the excess overboard. That's how mine is setup.
Hello everyone, hope someone can help me out once again. Well I finally started my motor and everythings great but I notice that water is getting up were the collector is. I have tail pipes and and the water dumps into the exhaust about a foot away from the collector. Im afraid that water might enter the exhaust valves. Took off the headers and I dont see any signs of water down at the heads. Should I cut the amount of water entering the tail pipe? I heard that reversion could cause this. Hope someone could help.

..........or you could just not run water thru them and not worry about it at all.

The black hoses come from the manifolds to the risers. There are washers welded in the riser bungs to restrict the water to the risers. The big braided lines T-off the bung, and go to the back of the transom, and join the dumps that are used by the chillers.
thanks i see exactly what you are talking about i always like seeing how other peolple solve problems that arise
Great pic h/h , It makes me feel a little better knowing that someone else had this problem at one time or another. Well I will give a try and see what happens. Thanks everyone for your help.
