Here is my cooler http://bpi.ebasicpower.com/p/HEXMER817577T
Kinda like asking 10000btu wall air conditioner to cool the whole house.

I'm just trying to make my system a little more efficient instead of spending thousands on coolers hoses etc. We are only talking about 15-20 degrees here. When i had the silent choice my pressures and temps were lower. Now since i removed the silent choice and added longer pipes oil temp and water pressure went up
I just called Eddie marine and they said a lot of guys dump some water before the risers. They have no problem with that.

I have combos so if i switched to those I would also have to get power steering coolers also. The water lines on my coolers are on top and bottom not on the sides, I would have to re-do my 1 1/4 hose setup re-routing it out of the oil cooler down the back side of the engine then into the smaller PS cooler then another hose up to the t'stat housing and i would probably have to add a different type of oil filter housing with an oil thermostat like the HP500 engines.. I think i will just bleed some water out. Its starting to add up x 2

If I wanted to spend as little as possible I'd:
-Thoroughly clean the existing coolers. Bore brush the tubes, solvent through the shell.
-Open up the water dumps on your tails and any other flow restrictions. Some time with a dremel should do this.
-Check the transom piece for corrosion.
-Inspect the suction hose. It's already off, give it a squeeze and make sure it doesn't collapse.

I just wanted to say thanks to all for the help on my oil temp issue. After Running last weekend i decided to remove the end caps on my coolers. I was shocked at my findings. I can't believe the oil wasn't showing hotter and the engine water temp was at normal 152. SAND<PEBBLES>SEAWEED CLOGGED IN BOTH COOLERS.
Curious about the oil temps after cleaning
