Title: Jet plumbing questions
Post by: bigboy_77 on August 03, 2008, 10:13:18 PM: I am trying to finish up my project and I can't figure out the plumbing for the jet. I am running a 12JC pump and a BBC with Nicson through transom exhaust. I read a previous thread http://www.socaljetboats.com/index.php?topic=4220.0 (http://www.socaljetboats.com/index.php?topic=4220.0) and the pic from luckie stiff helps but would I do something different for through transom exhaust? Please help.

Thanks,
Rob

Brian,

TT's hook up the same basic way as OT's, with the exception being this:

Instead of having an overboard dump like you do on OT's, you take that water and send it to the TT's @ the bung located near the hoses, split it with a TEE and send one line to each header.

I'm not sure (I dont have TTs) but are you talking about something like this Skip. Let me know so I can change it if its wrong.

Blue lines are water from the pump to the motor, and red lines are from the T stat out to the headers.
