Default Best solution for replacing 502 stock manifold/risers?

I want to replace the stock 502MAG manifold and risers. Looking for "no worries" and not having to do regular gasket replacing.

IMCO?

EddieMarine?

Needs three sets.......

I've never heard a bad thing about Stainless Marine. Not very expensive either, compared to some others!

I have Stainless Marine w/polished s/s risers. They came with all hardware for shifters, oil filter breackets, etc., and they fit perfectly no tweaking or anything. I only paid like $1500 for 502 EFI/MP MAG. I actually gained about 200 rpm and 1-2 mph. Have not had any problems yet. Check the price on this site:

I have Stainless Marines... Make sure you ge the stainless risers that drop back far enough to keep water from reverting...

Any effect on EFI units with Stainless Marine. Also considering for 502 EFI's.

I went with the Gil Offshore Exhaust. Paid a bloody fortune for them, but they're pretty much maintenance free. After 6 years I put them on my new engines, bought a new gasket and turbulator ring for each. The originals turb rings were fine, but I preferred starting from scratch. The rest of the system was like new after 6 seasons on the Chesapeake, incredible quality imho.

I have heard good things about the Stainless Marine setup, less expensive too. In any case, didn't notice any performance enhancement on my end. Carb'd engines in mine.

Hey Tim, you're signature link is blowing the frame off the screen, can't see full page without horizontal scroll.

I had my first dealings with Stainless marine this past year. Excellent company to deal with and a great product too.
