Howdy,

They'll be fine. If you drive out to the coast to operate in salt water, don't expect them to last long.

Less weigt in the back can get you up on plane a little quicker. Local shop like them a lot.

Ayuh,.... Check the flatness of the gasket surfaces at the manifold to riser joint,....

My iron Glms were short by 'bout .030", 'n leaked into the exhaust...
Had to flatten 'em at the machine shop...
