Decided to do the head gaskets and springs while I'm in there. Figured, why not clean the bilge too. Easier to work on the motors anyway...Still looking for some info on water pick-ups

I installed Wipples on my friends Cafe. We installed new Stainless Marine pickups for the engines, and used the Bravo XR pickups for the intercoolers. We also installed two additional Strainers for the Bravos to feed. Works great.

Not the normal install though. Any drawbacks?
