I took an ad from a boat trading magazine into the marina. They met the price in
the ad, and I went with the Mercruiser brand. I didn't go with ceramic coating.
If the old ones lasted you nine + years, why change? Will you own the boat with
the same engine for nine more years?

I couldn't get Chuck's URL to work.

Mercruiser exhaust parts are finished better, and coated better(ceramic)
than aftermarket. Prices are very competative too.

If your exhaust manifold couples to an elbow, then apparently a riser is not
part of your system. Why would you think you need one?

You got nine years out of the Mercruiser parts. Why consider something because
of a three year warranty?

Look at your engine. You don't need any more parts than are there now!

Generally speaking, the only reason you need a riser is if, in your
particular installation, the manifold or elbow outlet is at such a height
that the final exhaust tube to the transom exhaust outlet has a very gentle
pitch, so that there *might* be a chance of backflow into the manifold in
pitching seas. If the original factory installation did not include a
riser, then you probably don't need one.

I'm not sure where you live, but Doug Russell Marine in MA has the best
prices in NE as well as a great selection.
