Nice! I didn't see that one while searching ebay. Is it meant to be mounted in the up or down position?

Will this cause any restriction of note to the flow?
My only concern is that you may not notice one day it becomes clogged and you wouldn't notice.

It's got HUGE inlet and outlet, and I read somewhere a guy had one of these on his v8. He found it all clogged up one day, and it was still flowing enough for him to not notice anything. I'm going to try it, as I've found a bunch of debris in my cooling systems every time I take them apart. I'm pretty sure I've lost a few engines due to this.
I have used the strainers for years and never had a problem. I install the screen when I ride the ocean and always have a little sand and seaweed in it after riding the surf. At the lakes my skis are never beached so I just take the screen out for peace of mind.

have a question, anyone that ever installed the single gauge hood on their xp have issues with it not closing. It's about a 1/8 inch from seating on the hood pin. My rig fix was to dremel out a little bit of the circle that seats around the pin and put two small washers between the hinge and the hull. This works, but you can see I rigged it up through the front gap between the hood and hull. Any advice?

Damn that easy? I was doing this in the dark last night, I should of stopped and came back to it today. So I can just loosen the pin, and slide it down a hair? I didn't realize there was room for adjusting it.

if I can't move that pin then I am going to do what you guys did. I'm not happy with my rig up.

Good to know. I knew there had to be a adjustment, I couldn't believe I couldn't find anything about this in any forum or google searches.
Yep the Noid nailed it. 13mm on top, 17mm on the bottom.

Sometimes you just have to ask. I know from doing a resto.
How true on asking questions.

they can rattle loose too. Had that happen on my seat bolt. LOL! The nut was gone. Disappeared somehow into my hull. Never did find the thing. Fortunately the seat didn't fly off while doing 70mph down the highway for 2 hours. :cuss:
