Title: Header injection
Post by: 2savage4you on February 18, 2009, 06:52:13 PM: Soooooo ive been doing alot of thinking about getting the boat done right the first time, Im tired of it sitting on a trailer and not beached at the river/lake.. So i have been looking into this Banderlog injection and it seems to be fool proof and thats what i need..

How many peeps are running them and how are they working for them..

I will probably get one for the Eliminator aswell...

One less thing he could phuck up right :sly:

I figure by the time i get the lines, fittings run a valve to the front seat, buy a rebuild ball, spring for the bassett t valve and so on. Im halfway there of buying a Banderlog

What do you guys think ??

I like simplicity Banderlog Yes or no ???

A killer under seat (or close) positive shut off can be a hdwr store lever ball valve or the billet meteterd ones like this Tom

kinda hard to see but above the temp guage

If you've got an extra $300 laying around doing nothing, then buy the Banderlog valve, I personally think they're way too damn much money, I run a metering valve up at my seat, controls the header water to the Bassett T. Boats have been set up this way for a long damn time with no problems, save your $$$

After my thread and phone calls wiith Tom, I checked out the Banderlog site, and it seems that thing uses a metering valve also, so I honestly fail to see any advantage other than it might eliminate the Ball and Springvalve in the header T is all. But I'm only a day into my depth of knowledge on plumbing these things, what do I know?
