The proposed fix might work it just isn’t something I would do on my own boat. Maybe I’m just particular.

That jacketed tube should extend such that it just about butts up with the exhaust tip. There should only need to be a short 3-4” straight rubber section. The current pipes are ill fitting you are trying to compensate with a contorted 1 foot long piece of rubber.

I would be worried the rubber tube collapsing over time. I would also be worried about water reversion given the water re-enters the exhaust so close after the bend.

Nice looking setup. How loud is that?

So are you guys saying that the risers were flawed direct from EMI due to the exhaust exiting 3" past the ewater jackets ? I am starting to think this from what yall are suggesting yet this is how the factory risers work.

So what keeps the heat from those pipes from burning up the transom? looks like the water exits at the end therefore no cooling of the exhaust tubes happens ?

Not flawed but kind of generic setup geared towards working in multiple applications. Feel free to give me a call. I can probably help you out one way or another.

I really can't understand what the confusion is here . Your original transom outlets were cut for risers that were 3" higher and you put on (bought) 'standard height' risers that are too short.
There's only one way to fix it properly and that's invest in the correct height risers.

Well, new EMI riser showed up today . Installed they seem to line up better except the water connection from the manifold to the riser sux ass ! Prob done with EMI !

That's better !
Short pieces of hose hate intense curves like that if they're not specifically made for the application .
Shop around for something that might do the trick . I know you want it neat and it'll make you feel a lot better if you can source the right ones .
