White thing behind engine..

[ToddW]

I take it the white lil box behind the engine and under the driveshaft is the box that helps the suction bilge get the water out the back?

Would have been nice for blowsion to inform me that their bracket requires that to be removed/moved to a new location. I would have just stuck the bilges to the hull myself hten!

Major PITA working down there with everything still in!!!!!!!!!!

yup, that's what it is...

 

[ToddW]

I take it that it should still work ok if I put it in front of my bigles and 5200 it to the hull right?

Or just remove it since I have 2 bilges back there now anyway?

if I remove it do I need to block off that line so water doesn't back flow or is their a checkvalve someplace in the system?

it can't be glued to the bottom or it will not siphon...

you can remove it... i used the through hull fitting from it to add a second cooling line for my motor. but you have to drill and tap the pump... do a search on "dual cooling".

or you can just block off that line where it comes through the bulkhead... and remove the hose altogether.

Thanks.

Looked at my bracket again from blowsion and it has a L piece toward sthe motor, I think it's for relocating this white box.

Off to get it all setup.

just ditch the stock bilge. It blocks some of the water flow in the pump. I ground the outlet from the pump and tapped for dual cooling and the waterline for it works perfect for your 2nd waterline. What do you need a stocker for if you have aftermarket bilges?

I will setup dual cooling down the road, I just needed to get the bilges in before my trip. I just re-located the factory white box to the front of the bilges and it works there with factory bracket.

Now I'm waiting on blowsion for my hull fittings.. 3rd times a charge! And my switches, they should all be here tomorrow
