Anyone have a better solution to get the 4 hoses to the cylinder other than 4 thru hulls, just seems like it will be cramped getting all those connections made in the engine room against the transom. I like the Latham thru hull tees, but I bet they are pricey.

Hey Ben,
I am knocking on wood my engines can hold together until 2015, granted i only put about 10 hrs a year on them. Late 2014 the majority of my divorce settlement ends, i will actually have money to eat things other than ramen noodles! So then i should be ready to start preparing for a rebuild & getting more power out of these things.
