Dave, Sorry I didnt get right back to you I just saw your post.Terry at Revolution says merc used two hoses per side,one to feed manifold and one to feed riser.Rev. has a cross over hose to feed the riser from the manifold.I have used the boat three or four times now and no issue with cooling the exhaust this way.

Yep, although the instructions are for big block, they were both helpful and confusing. On the small blocks the one-holer manifold goes on the port side, and you do not need a special power steering pump.

Also, all I had to do to get the exhaust hose on was slide the original steel pipe further back into the back hose, and then it would slide on easy. I found on the 2nd side to assemble the entire riser/hose/pipe/hose assembly and then slide it on the tip. This makes it very easy to install, and I didn't have to cut or trim anything.

Thanks for the file!

Thanks Nordic.
I studied your picture and it looks like you have the t'stat housing from stainless marine. I called Brownie on Monday and spoke to him . I ordered a t'stat housing from them that should work. Uses stock circulator, and one manifold hose per side but has constant water flow because of bypass holes in the t'stat.
Thanks for everyones help!

Yes, that is a Stainless Marine Thermostat.You dont need by pass holes in thermostat to feed exhaust.The thermostat sits in the manifold below where the fresh water and exhaust are so it constanly circulates out exhaust even with thermostat closed.I added two by pass holes on one motors thermostat to eliminate steam pockets I was getting in that one motor.
Good Luck
