Converting from Mercruiser to Crusader Exhaust?

Greetings,

I'm in the process of replacing the risers on my fresh water cooled Mercruiser 350's, and remember once again how much I despise the design of this system. I've always admired the Crusader system design, because they offer true fresh water cooling, as both the manifolds and risers can be part of the fresh water cooling system. Crusader then uses a water injection elbow after the riser to introduce the raw water to cool the exhaust, which is easy to service. I also like the Crusader system because the water injection elbow is away from the engine and manifold, so if it does seep at some point, it doesn't seep salt water all over the manifold.

Is there any reason why I could not convert to a Crusader exhaust system on my Chevy 350's?

Thanks!

The more of your exhaust system that is cooled by the closed side the bigger heat exchanger you need. Other than that it is entirely up to you. Any crusader parts will bolt up to your chevy 350. You will need to do a little customizing but it's just plumbing :-)
