Hi All,
Do the newer style dry joint exhaust manifolds on mercruiser 5.0 mpi's have a longer life than the older style ones?
Mine are coming up to 5 years old, So i'm probably going to take them off and inspect for corrosion and replace if necessary.
Can anyone explain what I'm looking for? And is it likely that the risers and elbows will also need replacement or will any significant corrosion be limited to the manifolds?
The boat lives in saltwater 365 days of the year, it only comes out of the water for the yearly service.
