Custom/Hybrid exit nozzle block off?

[stg5685]

Just installed my Xmetal trim system on my 62t exit nozzle I was running a protec nozzle before that had the line on the outside blocked off. The 62t exit nozzle has one on each side do they need to be blocked off or can they stay open? im running both cooling lines of the vein.

I'd block em if you're not using them.

Tape the inside area and pore some JB-Weld down the holes you're not using.

Meh. I like using a blind cap just in case you ever want to use it again.

JB-Weld can be drilled out and it leaves a smooth contour finish on the inside area of the reduction nozzle for enhanced undisturbed water flow.

Meh!

Methinks you'll be hard-pressed to actually feel a performance difference. But I see your point.

go and get a flow guard while your at it...

 

[Matt_E]

I'll try one out for sure.

I fill mine with silicone. Finishes off smooth and holds fine. I've had a couple caps, but blew both out. But they look real cool when I did fountains.

You're most likely correct to say the difference wouldn't be noticeable but anything that improves flow or stops cavitation will be a good advantage.
