Hi Gaylen, This has got to be the most successful first run I've ever heard of. Very well done! Cheers, Rusty _________________________________________________ Hi Gaylen, Congradulations! A great looking installation. If I were starting today, would hang the radiator underneath and exhaust as far out to starboard as possible and stay inside cowl. Did you lower the thrust line or is the 8 that much taller on the cowling than the 9? Were all your runs with the cowling off. Hopefully you will not have my experience when you add the cowl. I can't get the water up to temp with cowl off, but am margiinal with cowling on.
