Bravo Nosecone with LWP
 
I've got a Bravo 1 with only a low water pickup and I"m wanting to put a set of nosecones on them, but wondering if anyone has had any luck drilling holes in the nosecone & still getting enough water flow. I'll only be using the water to feed my intercooler, I have other pickups for the engines.

I have installed Imco's nose cones on my LWP lowers ... plenty of water flow ... drilled the water dam inside the cone to 11/16 . inlet on cone stock from Imco ... tac welded in place and faired with marine tex . I also just feed intercoolers . pressure is around 10 psi @ coolers ... no pump ... just ram pressure . I run a pop off valve to bleed off excess water press . Boat runs low 90's and prop shaft is currently @ 5.75 below running surface . -2 shortys in the works ... :)
