One piece to center rise manifolds

[Scaaty]

For those that asked about the manifold switch. Heres the original AQ255A Volvo Penta. 350SBC....<br />

<br />Heres the Barr I replaced...<br /><br />

<br /><br /><br />Heres what I did......<br /><br />

<br /><br />I don't have the elbow to riser rubber on yet in this pic. The elbows come with around 8 inches of hose, and I used that for the connection to the Y pipe. Order another foot of hose for the elbow to riser connection. I put the riser on with one bolt so I could swing it out of the way while I figured out where everything would go. I slipped (WD40 on the rubber slips real easy) the hose on the Y, figured out where the elbow should be (you will have to push it back, bending the lower hose), placed all the clamps on the hose, and with the riser gasket off, put 4 inch or so of hose on the riser, slid it over the elbow, and after making sure everything lined up, slid the riser gasket in, and bolted it down, and tightened the clamps. The only thing I will watch is the lower hose, but I don't see a problem. <br />Parts (Sierra...2 of each)<br />Manifolds 18-1997-1<br />Risers 18-1999<br />Elbows (80 degree I think) 18-1992-1<br />$530 delivered of a ebay dealer
