Can you put sea strainers in a SS?
I have a 28 SS with twin 454's and considering sea strainers.
Has anyone installed them.......and where did you put them, there is just so little room. I also have two engine oil coolers mounted on the center rib below both engines. |
You can mount to old style perko's on the center stringer in front of the motors close to the bulkhead. Would probably be the only place you can get to them without issue.

i have gaffrig style strainers mounted on the aft end of either side of the center strainer. I also have 454 mpi motors there not easy to get to.
|
I have a set of the Brass Strainers if you want to give them a shot let me know.
Also Stage I hit Old Orchard Beach a few times a summer how close are you. Love the Avitar Pic -Mike |

I dropped a pair of pliers down there a while back and fear I won't be able to retrieve them until I pull the engines....lol |
