Default 600SCI Reversion?

I have read the cam is not particularly aggressive. Would it be better to put dry tails to limit the possibility of reversion? I would like some water at the end to make it appear legal at a minimum. I have heard differing opinions and don't want to take a chance on a new engine. Anything to worry about with wet exhaust?
Thanks for any ideas

I addressed my reversion issues with my 525's by having full length tails made. They are dry to just about an inch before the end and dump the water right at the very end of the tailpipe.

Exactly what I am looking for. Did CMI make them for you? how long is full length out of the transom? Thanks for you help!

My engines aren't 600's , I have the straight back CMI's with this kind of tail, through the transom about 5 in.

Yes, CMI made them for me. They stick about 2" outside the transom. Call David Rank at CMI and tell him you want the same tails as Neil H. with the 47 Fountain.
