Super nice Doug, Did you keep your side vents operational when you converted? Grady

Thanks Grady. I did keep the velocijets. As I've mentioned elsewhere, I do get soot, but my boat also seems to be a bit quieter.

I really wanted to keep them but got overruled.....the gas motors with the velocejet setup was so quiet I could not hear my 454's....I wish that was the same with the diesels.
