    Hi, does anyone know where you could get marinisation parts for a Nissan TD27 (non-turbo)?

    Cheers,

    I guess nobody makes the water cooled manifold you are looking for.
    You could make steel adapter flanges and use one of the Bowman manifolds with the same number of ports and approximately the same length.

    Hi Patrick
    I have a 2.7 Nissan Teranno Turbo In my boat.all I have done is taken of the fan blades all water coolant pipes bolted a sea cock coupled to a jabsco pump. So sea water from sea cock to jabsco from there pipe to Bowman header tank from tank to wet exhaust .

    Fresh water from header tank to front engine water pump then a pipe from bottom of engine to fresh water out let back to the header tank, So you make a loop for fresh water and sea water in from sea cock around header tank and out the excuse I hope this help .

    Works a treet monty

    Hi, thanks for the replies.

    Would an adapter be like a 'sandwich' plate between the exhaust ports on the block and the corresponding ports on the bowman manifold?

    cheers
