Wet Joint vs Dry Joint Mercruiser Manifolds
Mercruiser engines use either a wet joint or a dry joint exhaust system. Selecting the correct style is essential for proper cooling performance and long-term durability.
- Wet joint systems allow cooling water to pass through the gasket surface between the manifold and riser.
- Dry joint systems separate water and exhaust gases, reducing corrosion risk and improving gasket longevity.
If you are unsure which system your engine uses, our team can assist with accurate identification.

When Should You Replace Mercruiser Manifolds?
