Does anyone know if it's possible to run the water through stock Merc Manifolds before going to the water pump flanges?
The way this boat was set up is as follows:
Pump to ball valve.
Ball Valve to "T" then into motor through water pump inlets.
Exits motor through water outlet on intake.
From water outlet to inlet on the bottom of the Merc. manifolds and out the exhuast.
I'd like to heat the water up before entering the block. There is a 1" fitting on the front of the riser as well as a blocked in/out on both sides of the manifold next to where the riser mounts.
I'm not sure whether the two that are blocked are inlets or outlets.
Thanks
Slick
