That was my thoughts too Spare... even with the oil cooler in the intake it still couldn't hurt.

Well the engine rebuild is gradually coming together...decided on a pro comp street performance aluminum head. Water hose nipple is being fitted and welded in now and head assembled and fitted. Next issue is going from old log style manifold to newer style aluminum w/ a 45 deg. riser outlet.
Does anyone know if a later model lower exhaust pipe will fit an early pre- alpha transom assy. Manuals and diagrams seem a little conflicting. May have to do a little fabricating!! Any ideas greatly appreciated.

No. it wont. When they went to the alpha set up, the rear motor mounts moved to allow better exhasut routing. Youd have to change the engine bell housing, and inner transom plate. Run a stand alone thermostat housing/resevoir. Buy one Eddie marine manifold or a GLM aluminum replacement for a 460 king cobra, Have a custom riser pipe made to run right out the back
