The original Yanmar product is made from thin .060 stainless tubing and is welded.  Please see the picture of the sectioned parts where the brand new Yanmars weld penetration is less than desirable.

HDI Marine elbows are all precision investment cast 316 stainless. 

Our flange thickness is 50% thicker  Yanmar's  .220 / 5.7mm   HDI Marine's .320  / 8.2mm

Our tube thickness is 60% thicker   Yanmar's  .062 / 1.5mm    HDI Marine's .097 / 2.5mm

 

Our design using thicker tubing does not constrict the exhaust.  We maintained the OEM inside diameter and increased the outside diameter to compensate for the thicker wall tubes.  This allows the same volume of water and exhaust gases to escape.  We narrowed the outside diameter back down after the exhaust tube ends to maintain the proper hose size.

 

I started making these stainless steel mixing elbows when my Yanmar iron elbow failed me.  I was shocked at the cost and the fact they were still cast iron.  As most of us know; salt water, heat & cast iron don't work well together. When I realized I could fix this, not only for me but for other boat owners around the world, I couldn’t help but try.

 

 I am a manufacturing engineer and have specialized in castings for over 25 years. These parts are guaranteed for 2 years but should last a lifetime. I installed the first one I made into my 4LH-STE in 2005. It still looks new inside and out. The product line has grown only from people asking me to make products for their engine, after stumbling upon another elbow for a different model.  I take a lot of pride in my products; you will see and feel the quality when you receive it.

 

Please note OEM's have made different mixing elbows for the same engines.  Example: Yanmar has equipped the 4LH-STE with 5 different elbows to accommodate changes in horsepower and engine mounting location in relationship to waterline.  They also change their part numbers often.   My experience is that comparing a picture is always worth more than paying to ship it back.

Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera teases Geneva concept car

Wed, 15 Feb 2012

Carrozzeria Touring Superleggera has released a teaser image of its 2012 Disco Volante Concept, which will debut at next month's Geneva motor show. In 1952, the Italian coachbuilder Carrozzeria Touring teamed up with Alfa Romeo to create a series of special-bodied cars to trial new technologies as well as being easily adaptable for racing. Perhaps the most famous (and beautiful) was the 1952 Alfa Romeo Disco Volante (C52) which was based on the Alfa 1900, with both coupe and Spider convertible bodies produced.

Morgan Aero Coupe and Plus 8

Fri, 03 Feb 2012

Whilst looking decidedly vintage, the Morgan Plus 8 is one of three new models that will debut in Geneva. Moving away from the traditional ash chassis (yes, as in the wood) of the previous car, the new Plus 8 features a bonded and riveted aluminum chassis, similar to the high-performance Aero variants. Externally, the car retains the retro styling that is to be expected of Morgan, but sits on a wider track with deeper rockers.

BMW X7 back on?

The BMW X7 - Made for China Yes, yet another BMW X-Something to consider – the BMW X7. This time an enormous SUV that was canned as an idea a couple of years ago when the world went in to financial meltdown, but one that is starting to look like a sensible move once more for BMW. Sensible?
