so a valve like the one pictured opened two complete rotations?
Thats what I was told . I idled around in circles to see how hot it would get and do minor tuning from there . I only get to 180 , tops. If you decide to do this . Make sure you put it as close to the pump as possible . If a line ever decide to give , you'd be pumping water into your boat , and fast .
My Hallett came with a 4"copper nipple from the pump to the valve them rubber hose .
My saguaro came with a bitchin ball valve which to me was redundant . It now has a 1 1/2 ft of hard line to an accesable point and them a valve .
Lots of people are going to the more popular method of a bypass relief or a regulator of some kind .
Another pointless story for ya : When I first bought my saguaro I had never even been on a website much less knew anything about what a jet boat was . I saw a big block chevy and big ass chrome headers and I was sold . Talking with a few people who have been in jet boats since the 70's . This is what they told to do and it all came about because I wanted to put a garden hose attachment on it . They also said call rex marine . I called rex and they said "You can get all this stuff at the Home Depot ." So anyways , here i am .
