5252 EFI Flush Pro
 
Has anyone had a positive, negative or any experience with using a Flush Pro kit with 525 EFI's? I'm adding Whipple's to the motors and I would like to put these on however I'm a little concerned about water restriction.
Thanks
Rick

I’ve used a lot of them. Usually they last 3 years and develop a crack and leak. Can you put a tee in line with a ball valve instead?

If you’re doing the whipple, you’ll at least want a sea strainer. I’d plumb a flush into there.

That's probably best. There is just so little room in this boat, I have no idea where I could mount the ball valve where it could be reached. Although, if they need to be changed every 3 years that's probably far worse that jimmying a handle. Thank you very much for the input!!

Ya, I'm putting a sea strainer in for each of the MOAC. I would love to put one in for each engine but there is not where to put it that would be accessible.
Thanks
Rick

That looks great!! The right engine is no problem. The left side is the real issue. Best picture I hve now the motors are out. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...0866b6e61a.jpg

Have you measured the hatch clearance for the whipples, looks to be close with the efi

rwysowski1 11-01-2020 04:44 PM

According to Whipple the height is only 1" higher than OEM. I at least 1 1/2". So, I sure hope their correct!! :)
