    I currently have the 4" salisbury flappers that have a tendancy to curl due to heat from the dry exhaust. Can anyone recomend a better flapper?

    Hardin sells an all steel one, I cant help but think that over time with heat, vibration, and constant slamming it would start to bend and eventually break off.

    My dry pipes have a couple small pee holes at the end to provide enough water to cool mufflers. Although I don't have any on now. Worked when I did.
    Big boats rule!

    Steel would be nice but wonder if it would be noisy like a flapper on a truck...not that I don't like noise.

    The only problem I see with that is the added length would actually submerge into the water.

    What exhaust are you running? I have stainless marine and can not find any.

    If you look in their catalog it shows an O-ring insert in the tip that supposedly keeps it from clanging. I still cant see the design holding up for any length of time and they are PRICEY.
