If it were me, I'd dump it on the driver's side at the rear, you can keep an eye on it this way.

Wow you found all the deatils! Thanks so much, I have to head over there this weekend anyways so I will pick one up. I think I will dump it out one of the 2 bilge holes I have off the top of the transom, I'm sure one was maybe for a cable in a previous life but my 12JC has a hole through it already for the steering cable

I put a volt meter on the wire comin off the alternator and there is only like half a volt coming off of it. I have one large wire coming off the alternator to the isolator and the isolator going to each battery. But on my wire harness which is pre wired for a 460 has an ignition hot wire coming out of the loom right next to the main power wire coming off the alternator. Is that an excite wire that should be hooked up the alternator as well?

Depends on what Alternator , lots of these boats have been changed over to "one wire" self excite types and no lonnger need the ig circuit , The Older Delcos , the Motorrolas and the Prestolites use an igition excite wire . I would think that the isolator should allow a full 12 volts thru from each battery , thus you should see 12v +or- at the large B+ terminal Check your pms for a number if you need help Tom

Hey man, I found you a very nice interior for your boat, less than 1 season on it, white with silver blue stripes and piping, if you want it cool, if not, let me know so I can sell it to someone else. Good luck with your boat, you're going to need it.

Just got some seats and a rear bench, debating if I want to leave it a 2 seater  ;D
As for the duramax Nordie, this is the second injector I have replaced, the remaining 6 have great flow still but for how long? :banghead:

Getting ready to get her wet sometime this week..... but need to make sure everything is checked over and I had a few questions:

I had the pump gone through and checked out but was wondering besides the greasert on the inside of the transom next to the inspection plate is ther any other point that need lubrication. Like the two nipples on the outside bowl?

I also got the pressure releif valve hooked up but to make sure it opens at the right pressure should I have a pressure guage on that line?

Also is it okay to run without a driveline cover just for a test run until I get one Everything is far out of the way of the driveline

If there's 1/4" pipe plugs in the bowl, yeah, you need to fill it with 90 weight. If there's zerks in there, then it takes grease. Someone else should recommend what kind of grease if it's set up with zerk fittings. I tend to use expensive crap.... :screwy:

A pressure guage would be fine, for dialing in exactly what pressure you're looking for, but honestly, it'll never popoff anyway unless theres another serious issue that will rear it's ugly head much sooner than the valve actually doing what it's supposed to, I would think. I know, I run one as well.........paranoid is paranoid........

In other words, a solution to a non problem, in most cases.

Thanks IR I got that all taken care of.

I still need to fix the alignment of the motor cuz my driveline is just barely off.

And I need to get the alternator working. I was supposed to take pics and get the numbers off the alternator for Tom (sorry Tom)but my camera charger is broken and there are absolutely no numbers on the alternator :screwy:
But I know it is a 1wire alternator and I am running an aux solenoid. The ones that have two large side posts and the small S & I terminals. The Alt wire that comes off the front of the main terminal block I have hooked up to the Alt,  but from there I have no idea. There is no wire coming off the back of terminal block so not sure where to go from there. I know this is hard without pics!

Also just went to hook up my foot pedal and cable but found I have a push and my carb and motor are set up for a pull. Any solution to this besides getting a pull foot pedal?

Turn your carb 180* change the accellorator pumps front to rear and you're golden.
