Have a 99 rinker 232 5.7 bravo 3. Decided to replace manifolds and risers on the new engine I'm about to install. Since I'm replacing , should I convert to dryjoint? Is it worth it? Does anything else need to be changed or will they simply just bolt into place like the old manifolds and risers?

Yours should be plug and play. You can either go with custom like GIL and Eddie Marine, or Mercruiser, GLM or Osco

Benefits, engine is protected better from a gasket leaking water into the engine exhaust
