Something along this sketch. Your current system is cooling the headers with the water in the jacket. The fabricated elbow is also jacketed to cool the elbow. Then the water is dumped into the exhaust, approximately 10" away from the header and approximately 4" lower than the header and is inside the exhaust to cool the exhaust gasses so the entire system from there on never gets hot enough to cause any safety issues.
If a Tee is needed on the outside exhausts it would use the same principles. A 4" tee with hole drilled in it where the 5" tube is jacked over the first part of the Tee.

01-23-2014 12:22 AMThe 4" exhaust hose should be no more intrusive than your current wrapped dry exhaust. Maybe less.

You guys are crazy!
So I contacted Dave, He is the person who made the exhaust fittings in the previous photos. Dave is very knowledgeable in this field and has agreed to build the exhaust fitting as suggested by "Ratickel". I will continue to post as this goes forward. Boat was painted today, so hoping to get all of this behind and see ya'll for the Destin, Fl. Poker Run !!! Pretty sure I owe "Ratickle" a few beers! Thank you for all of you insight and knowledge!!!
