SM didn't give you a spec sheet like what Lightning has to measure to/from/where ? Like this
http://www.cpperformance.com/instruc...mtailpipes.pdf

When I measured for my Lightnings I bought new, I had to measure the standard stuff (A & B) in the link that was posted above and how far through the transom I wanted the tips to stick out.
i have that sheet. It's just implementing it and getting accurate measurements is the question.

Another question. My current setup with the cmi e tops has 2 hoses that run from the engine

1. Bypass to the collector
2. T stat to the manifold

what is everyone doing for plumbing routing on the stainless marine as there is only one location for plumbing. I was thinking about joining the two together via a fitting then sending it all to the manifold. The other option is adding an additional bung to the riser/tail.
