I am purchasing a 1999 Tiara 3500 Open with twin FWC Crusader 454s and the survey showed temps on the inside of each engine of 170F, but the outside of each engine above 200F. The surveyor recommended replacing all of the manifolds and elbows (no risers), which I plan to do once the boat is winterized. What are the chances that the outside manifolds on both engines are bad vs a water distribution issue though?
