So I read a lot about having to regularly check and/or replace manifolds and risers. I assume this is the exhaust manifold on each side of V6/8 engine. I assume the risers are what attach to these to get the exhaust out of the boat. Am I correct? :huh:
Then, I'm looking at a 1996 240 Sundancer. Wondering what it costs to have these replaced? Do the manifolds usually need replacing at the same time as the risers, or do each fail/wear independently? Just looking for a general cost estimate on what you guys think these run. I'm trying to figure if this boat is worth it or not, assuming it would need these replaced, but not knowing 100% for sure, yet.
Thanks,
Tom
