IMPORTANT
Before you unpack the kit and start installation, make sure you have the right kit for
your engine by studying these installation instructions
.
These installation instructions
have been written to cover most sterndrive and inboard installations on Chevy small block
engine conversions made by the major marine engine manufacturers before 1999. The
system is front mounted at the level of the thermostat housing and the engine must have
the alternator and/or the power steering pump mounted low or to the extreme port side of
the engine. The heat exchanger is 22 inches long.
These instructions cover a normal installation situation. Sometimes problems can occur
due to engine variations and boat-builder or owner modifications. If you run into such
problems you can call Monitor Products for advice during normal business hours.
If you determine this is the wrong kit for your type of engine:
o
Call the distributor you purchased the kit from for their return policy.
o
If you purchased the kit from Monitor Products Inc., call 1-800-334-4591 for
a return authorization. No returns will be accepted without this authorization.
The kit must be in new condition and repacked in its original packaging to
qualify for credit or replacement.
The installer must make sure that the overall installation is safe and in accordance with
Coast Guard and industry standards.
