Should have sold it to me when you had the chance. Now look at the mess I'm in.

This is Rambunctious here logged on at Waterfoul's
I can't seem to post right now under my logon.....??

there was no performance improvement, as expected. i wanted to eliminate th rattling of the loose baffles, and make it a little louder , since i had the swim platform off anyway.

so... it sounds great and I am glad i did it.
someone mentioned corrogated exhaust ??
One fellow performance boater told me that the corrogated exhaust hose is restricting. I don't have any data, I used smooth hose with stainless 30 deg elbows we fabricated to make the zigzag in the outboard chambers.

So in other words it would be a waste of time for me to do it for a 357 when there is no performance gain. 357sr1man

Thanks Masi-I think my platform is the same as the ones I have seen here-just no holes in it. It seems that simple...hopefully it is. I think I will keep gathering info and parts and try tackling it this winter.
