    Stainless Marine weight

    I recently added Stainless Marine to my 7.4 MPI.
    For those interested in the weight savings:
    Stock: per side
    Manifold – 41.2
    Riser – 12.6
    Total – 53.8

    Stainless Marine:
    Manifold – 19.2
    Riser – 7.2
    Total - 26.4

    The total weight savings is 54.8 lbs for both sides.
    Not huge but they definitely look better.

    Looks very nice, but I think your math is off a little on your total weight savings.

    Since the TR has "over the top" angle mounts, I'm pretty sure the prop shaft is probably more than 2" higher than a later boat..........
    If so, I'm getting the benifit of a shorty w/o the expense!

    Thanks.

    Yep, I need to take the GoPro out with me.

    I don't think they sound much different than stock.
