Sorry I don't have any pictures to post(computer idiot) but I run Lightnings polished water jacketed through hull headers on mine and I really like them. I don't even miss over the transom headers any more....well, maybe sometimes!
Hi, I just bought an Eliminator 19ft Daytona jet project boat and I'm about ready to do the exhaust system. I have OTs with it, but my local lake requires through hull, so I'm looking at jacketted headers that can be plumbed through hull, but have not decided on anything yet.
Pics of what your using and some details would be very helpful.
I ran logs on my last picklefork, but I want headers, IMCO powerflows or something like that on this one. The engine is a 496(stroked 454) with BM 250 blower.
Thanks, Scott
Here is a picture of the logs on my other boat to start the thread off.

It is the orange and white one with blue headers
Do the jacketed headers got hot like OT'sor as cool to the touch as logs?
My logs are certainly not cool to the touch, but they are forgiving if you touch them. My winter project III involves a set of Lightnings.
My lightinings run cooler than the Harmon logs & previously run.....While the engine is runnin you can actually grab the header tube for a short time, without burnin & searin.

If I recall right ... mine are Niccson logs. I'll be really happy to see lightnings on my Taylor, and nobody will know. BWHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAA I love having a sleeper arround all the Bajas and bassers here in the midwest.
Those Tri-Y's are pretty cool looking. Wonder why you never see that design style elsewhere. Everyone just does 4 tubes to a single collector.
