Default My Closed Cooling Install


After 2 days in the bilge I finally got my Closed Cooling installed. Got the port motor fired up but ran out of time to fire off the starboard.

Had some obstacles, mostly around fabricating a mount for relocating the PS pump because it uses the head bolts that the exchanger uses....

Looking forward to hopefully dumping it in tomorrow

Pretty sano!

Where does the water feed feed into the headers from now that it’s not coming from the crossover?

There are 2 one inch pipes coming off the ends of the heat exchanger that feed to the headers.

It's the CP performance kit. I had some back and forth with them on whether it would fit a tall deck or not. They were going to build me a custom one if not, but after mocking one up their standard kit worked for a 10.2 deck.

I will say that I worked with Jeff at Hardin Marine on this and he was the best to deal with. Always answered the phone, emails, etc....

I am going to feel so good about life now. I was always one of those guys that could hardly enjoy myself knowing that salt water was in my engines even though we would only do a lunch run and then put it right back on the lift and flush - I just couldn't relax and was always kind of in a rush to go back home.

This boat also has aluminum heads so I didn't even want to splash it before I got this done....
