Do you know if one is more problematic than the other?? Ie multicooler vs manicooler

 

[High Wire]

I do not know that, however you can still buy NEW mani-cooler kits to replace the multi cooler for non-turbo engines. The kit is somewhere between $3-4k at Trans Atlantic Diesel.

PM to discuss. If you want it shipped don’t lowball me and we might be able to deal. I rather not ship so local sale is what I prefer. Thing is heavy. I am in Southern New England. Might meet up for a good price. Thanks.

Looks like a salt water item, how do you know that it is a good one. Also have you tried to remove the tube stack,,

Cbouch,,
It came from a running engine.
I will do so and send pictures if I get interest, from a serious buyer. Of course I would demonstrate or let anyone evaluate it, or I could accommodate that myself. I just took another Perkins out of a boat I bought. I think I can open this up.
I am pretty busy right now. If you want to pick at people’s ads, why don’t you communicate directly with me, are you interested? TAD told me yesterday that the last price someone they know paid for this item was 10k!!! Thus my initial asking price. I hope I have not offended you.

 

[cbouch]

.sorry just asked questions as they came to me. Also thought that you would want to know that you had a multicooler and not a manicooler .no longer interested but I was ….

 

[Chetley]

I appreciate your suggestions, and will be removing the cooler stack when I get a chance, so I can take pictures and add them to an ad. I hope you find the manicooler you want.

I seem to remember that Marine Exhaust of Alabama was looking for one to use as a model for their manufacturing a replacement at one time.

I have two engines this would fit. At the moment (as far as I know) I don't need one. That could change come spring when I open it up for inspection.


Here's the thing with the price. If I find I do need one, I'll be in the market and probably willing to pay a lot more than I would today. Today it would be just a spare. It's like insurance. I wouldn't buy a policy for as much as it would cost me to replace the item I'm insuring.


If you want top dollar, let TAD and others know it's on the market. Then just wait until someone's desperate to get one. If you want to unload it cheap, I might even be interested, and if not, I'm sure someone else would.

AMEN thats what I thought. Wow. Thats getting close to what my fresh water only boat with two of them is worth.

 

[Chetley]

Price Change. 1000 or best offer.
Like I said, more than once:
I want it gone. Send your offers. Privately please.
