So you`re using something designed for exhaust gasses and filling it with salt water? I imagine most are doing closed cooling because of salt water .. salt water eats aluminum for breakfast, doesn`t seem like a long term solution.

I may be missing something but do I see 4-6 holes? What are those big holes on the top?
Wouldn't in be one in for raw water, one out for raw water and the same for engine water? Do you have a sketch on how you are hooking this up?

2nd on the sketch layout.
-12 fittings on front are seawater to exhaust manifolds. 32mm fitting on the back is seawater in. 2 X 25mm fittings at back, 1 for a pressure releif valve as it's making 35psi water pressure. That will dump on top of the drive... 1 for a feed to fill my balast tank up front via a tap the co driver controls. When it's opened, the pressure releif valve will close or reduce at least... Jas |

Starting to see the whole picture now!....have you figured out the placement the glycol tank & circulating pump yet?.....can you tell me the length of the cooler & the end dimension ~3" x 3" ??? or so.
Seeing a lot of different coolers & Trying to figure out what cooler would be best for my setup.....I'm running n/a 700 hp BBC's .......what dd15's would suit my needs?.....No doubt, there's a bit of fabrication involved probably not for the non-wrencher DIY-er, but I do weld (a bit) never tig on ss before, but I can throw it down & have a go at it if I choose .....to me, running in the ocean and having already eaten up 2 pairs of Imco power flow manifolds is not cheap.......I can pay 5K on a pair of CC systems from Harden - or- go cheap on the $$ and big on the labor try! |
I understand now. I looked on E-bay and there are a few of these there, it would be nice when I re-power. With Scippy, can you post dimension? I will only be around 600HP NA.

A smaller one would work good as a oil or trans cooler .
|
I wonder if the larger one would work well enough to run the engine and exhaust?
