Novarossi 46DD in a sport 40

[Wayne Johnstone]

Is anyone running a novarossi 46DD in a sport 40? If so have you had any heat issues with header / exhaust?

Find some heat tape and wrap it

Wayne I had heat related coupler issues until I switched to Teflon couplers. Just remember to only put teflon on headers or pipes OUTSIDE. You must use a torch to heat it up and the ventilation is a must because the fumes are toxic. Boat ran great after that.

Do you have any photos of it?
