Bullet Head ReDo
 
3 Attachment(s)
Last winter I redid the fresh water system in my Bullet and I decided that I'd replace everything in the Head this winter. I went down to the boat last weekend and started "rippin' her out" :D
Thought that I'd take pictures and share with everyone. If anything, it will prove that anyone can do it...because I have no idea what the heck I'm doing!!! :D :D One thing is for sure, it aint rocket science!! :drink: :drink:
The bowl is rusty and the metal drain is glassed in as well as the water supply. That complicates things, but there is plenty of time until boating season up here.

The bowl apparattus was removed by taking out the screws and then I had to use a razor knife to break the silicon bead around the bowl.

From what I've been told, the bowls were custom made for the Bullets in-house at Cigarette. If what I have can be used, it will be refinished and used. I've sent it south to a "Bullet crapper expert" :p :D :drink: and should know something in a week or so.

Great post Craig, I still have this on my list but I'm tackling the GPS install at the moment. Btw, that plastic plate will work great, thanks again my freind.

Craig, pretty nasty down there huh? In '89 they changed the bowl fitting to plastic to eliminate the rust problem. Check your holding tank especially on the bottom where in contacts the pad it rests on. Probably corroded by the seams. The label on the tank is valid and they still are in biz. If you go with the new tank, have it painted and space the "L" brackets from the bottome pad. Prefferable with rubber to absorb shock. This is a crappy job!
