The motor will breath better than with logs on it.

Mine was stiff when working it back and forth on the trailer.
Once I got it on the water and under power, it was amazing!

You should gain some performance from installing a set of headers  :thumbup:  But the best part is the mistery of not knowing when you are going to burn youself again  :o

The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

So true, the first time I took my little brother out on the boat he jumped back in the back to grab something and right as I tel him to be careful of the header I hear the all familiar sizzle, and realized... Uh too late lol


I look at it as a game

Ha, that's the biggest reason I wanted a cover engine with logs. My pretty clumsy and with the mostly family outings, it seemed like the logical easier way to go. Haha

I guess I'm doing it wrong. Have had open headers for better than 10 years, only list 1 ski rope and a bag of chips on the headers, oh and 2 plug wires. Then again, I dont work on the motor at the river...


I've seen some pics of "cool center riser burns" ,  just sayin'

So what's the best way to fix this? Just weld it up, cut out a piece and weld in a new one or put a patch piece over and weld it on?

If it were mine and I was going for a quick fix I would weld it up. If I was going for a more permanent fix I would graft in a new section of tube and weld in a new bung.

If you weld it up, dot be surprised if you end up chasing the hole around before it fills.
