are the stainless marine manifolds any wider than stock mercruiser? my engines are so close together...if they are any wider I think I will have "issues". thx in advance for any input.

Digger, I installed them on my 33' and my stock manifolds were so close that I could not get a finger in between. The Stainless marine manifolds actually had a bit more room in between when finished.....but what a fun job :rolleyes:

Forgive the shakey hand...
Jessica just had her 1st F250 PSD driving lesson, first lesson ever....
No wooden ruler but I made sure the tab was in the right spot for the photos.
Digger I replied to your email.

Bryan/Ted, thanks! My motors are now out of the boat, sitting in my mech's shop. (they sure look a heck of a lot bigger out of the boat :) ) will make install easier.

Hey Brian ,as long as your answering stainless marine questions,mine is ,How much farther back does the stainless set you got exit compared to your stock(i assume )manifolds ? I was thinking about going with them and was hoping to still be able to use my stainless Z pipes on my crossbow ,What do you think??

CROSSBOW, mine won't ne in the boat for a couple more weeks, I plan to document the entire install for the websites, that will show ease/problems and hopefully get a free hat from the HMaster!
Once in I can take any measurement you would like.
