[C320-list] Repowering update and anti-siphon height?

[Bernie Garrett]

Thanks folks,

I¹ll take a look. I guess it probably is worth moving as Catalina obviously
thought it should be higher! I wonder if there were incidents of engine
flooding? Looks a bit tricky to get from the heater hose outlet to the port
locker but I¹ll see what my mechanic thinks. I¹ll post where it ends up with
details of the engine change later!

Cheers

Bernie, the anti-siphon on our #62 is in the engine compartment as is your.
I don't know when the change was made; but, it was moved to the port cockpit
locker.

You'll see from where the heater hoses leave the engine compartment that it
is possible to make a run from there into the space between the liner and
hull. Find a later year and see where the hoses exit and how they brought
them into the cockpit locker. You might have to fish a messenger first to
pull the hose with.
