What do u think of these pieces? Definately time to change them. 9 years in NewEngland Salt water.......

PS. Engine ran fine and showed no signs of failure it was just time to change them out. Just in time... no rust inside heads.....

Without looking at the pictures I would say YES, it's time.

Just looked at the pictures. You were WAY past due for all new. Manifold, extensions, and risers.

Swansea Mass.......

I just bought the boat in October w/260 hours but I knew the 1st thing to do was replace manifolds/risers. It was way past due like Don said but luckily still done in time before disaster....

WOW! It's a good thing you pulled them now! Another year and you would have had major problems. Preventive maintenance is a must!
