the stock Y pipe set-up is a real limiter and it will kILL an ALPHA outdrive running all that heat through it. Running the exhaust through the transom will help the outdrive live MUCH better as well as freeing up some HP. The Y pipe is only rated to about 300-325HP for a small block, and many people report picking up quite a bit of top end by just installing the diverter set-up.

May not the the prettiest setup but if it works...
My question is, it looks like the lift is seated on the gunnel, how do you propose getting the engine out rather than just lifted up?

unless there is a gaping hole in the block, I dont see a reason to get it out of the boat....LOL But if I did, just sling it to a tree, lift it and drive the boat out from under it. It goes up plenty high enough to pull the pan and change pistons..LOL

Yes, not going for style points...LOL Just had to replace that piston that leaned out on me. I had it done and back in before anyone even had enough time to get their drunk on....LOL

I am being an idiot I can make whatever freakin exhaust I want. Hm....flipped up shorty headers, with custom pipes thru the transom. Also, could coil them and keep them water cooled.

Run stacks right up thru the cowl on 30* and they'll match the angle of the rod holders!!...
