Hi Folks,
As much as I like the sound of the PCM through the open exhaust of my Comp, I wanted to nock down the noise and the carbon monoxide. After talking about it for several seasons, I finally got around to making my variation of "Fresh Air Exhaust" for my 1987 TS6M today. This exhaust system connects to the transom, and directs the exhaust under the water.
It's built of 4" ABS plastic pipe and fittings, and secured to the transom using the same threaded fastners that secures the Super Trapps. The threaded fastener is lenghtened about 9 1/2" to reach through a the pipe and hole drilled on a 90 degree elbow (one on each side). I used the rubber from 1/2" livewell plugs below the securing nuts to absorb the curvature of the pipe.
These elbows are connected with pipe to each other, which Tee into the tailpipes. It isn't finished, I will have to follow up with another post showing the finished tail pipes, and the strut I intend add to brace the pipe assembly from water loads. Hopefully next weekend I'll get her out on the water, and can let you all know how the system performs.
Check out the pictures...
Cheers,
