Here are a couple pics of my new Stainless Marine exhaust.

Total weight savings is 145 Lbs! Not to mention the HP gain, longevity
and bling factor!

Thanks Brownie!!

Ted, I agree about the Stainless Marine exhaust.
When I bought my Minx, the most valuable thing on the boat (other than the hull) was the Stainless Marine manifolds and crossover.:eek!:

George,
do you know if anyone makes a crossover to eliminate
the water pump on a serpentine belt engine?

OH NO :MR X how could you?. those are way to loud. Oh my! more HP you will go much to fast!It's exhaust like those that we need speed limits on our lakes and rivers. SHAME ON YOU!! You need to put in a nice quite yugo motor or better yet a geo metro motor.:bonk:




All Kidding a side. Them there pipes is pretty. But is the lower manifold stainless too.It looks painted in the pictures.

LOL!! good one joe!! :) The term "Stainless Marine" is a manufactureres name. http://www.stainlessmarine.com/ You have a good eye! The manifolds are actually made of a high quality aluminum and powder coated. They will last indefinatly with proper care. The risers are in fact stainless steel and highly polished.

WOW! we finally got a chance to run the boat since I did
all the work on it. New XR drives, Stainless Marine Manifolds. New LAB props and more......

It accelerates MUCH harder and we gained 3 MPH!
Inspite of the XR drives, which require more HP to turn!
We hosed down the radar boat 2 seconds after the photo was taken!
