Oh no no no... Being originally from Florida, I have issues running raw water through an engine block. Even with our reduced salinity up the bay. I'll take the additional systems and their maintenance over a shortened engine life.

Good the life of a bored out engine w/raw water cooling in salt water can be short. ( been there )

Sorry to let you guys down... when I went to pick up plugs and wires and fluids and filters, the paint was a last minute decision. The engine was Allison beige and was the ugliest damned thing I'd ever seen in my life, and I dredged some ugly things off the bottom of the Sykes Creek growing up on Merritt Island...

The only color they had two cans of in engine paint was...

Ford Red.

I'd be racin' with the fishes,
Cuz rockfishes are delicious,
Smothered in a sauce of tartar...

Even though my boat is floatin'
I'd be on the bay a boatin'
if I only had a starter...
