CMI junk!!!!! I had 2 sets leak and everyone I know had issues. My bud locked up 2 engines and bent a rod because of those ****ing things. My brother went to stainless marine and didn't loose one mph.
My bud,S fountain with 200 hrs needs a set and we put header drains on it. the forward set is 5k wtf JUNK!!!!
I will never have a engine with those things on it ever again!!

Those look like nice exhaust manifolds, but I am not sure of the tube configuration inside the outside large jacket. Maybe someone who looked up close can let us know how they are configured inside.
Also, I think there was just recently a post on OSO about HiTek exhausts with some troubling comments? Seems like everyone here could use some real info and updates.

Yep , thats the post everyone should read and pay careful attention to.
As for the interior pipe size, length and design, if you are to beleive they are constructed per the cutaway on the 496 set, then I would have to opinion that they will prbably not make any more power than the stock 496 Mercury manifolds. all that extra water around the pipes is another question as to what happens when water flows and pressures from a used water pump starts dropping slowly with hours and use??
Just thinking inside the box here.
