I have a 1979 sleek craft SST with a 12JF-A the pump was put in with what looks like sea going epoxy, it is in there like a rock. there is some chipping and breakinging off of the epoxy in the intake to hull blending (see pics) should I grind out the old blending area and install new ? or do I have to cut the complete pump intake out of the boat and start over?.

Engine Mechanical / Electrical / cooling
« on: January 08, 2011, 09:42:59 AM »
I have had few jet boats and always ran the cooling the same way ( in the water pump fittings and out the thermostat out let). I am considering running into a stainless crossover and out the rear of the intake on either side of the dist. into two dumps at the rear of the port side of the boat so I can keep a eye on it also I will be useing a preset pressure relief valve dumping in the same location, the headers are dry with a manual valve to add water if I need. ANY opinions on this?
