Re: Volvo D3 - 110 Exhaust Elbow needed
|
Hi Bill,
Are these SS elbows the same for all VOLVO D3 110 – like I now have the “H” version of the D3?
Do they also make one for the ONAN generator model I have on board?
Best Regards Teun SV AMELIT A54 #128

Jeffery,
Great!
HDI will use it to make a mold, then make an investment cast stainless steel elbow for the D3. For those of you that don't know what we are discussing, many marine engines including Yanmar and Volvo have either a cast iron or welded stainless steel exhaust elbow. These almost always fail, and seem to fail at an inconvenient time. I had my Yanmar welded stainless steel elbow fail in Thailand. The Yanmar OEM part cost me Yanmar list price of $500 plus $500 duty. HDI sells an investment cast stainless steel elbow for less than $300.
HDI is a Preferred Vendor of Amel Yacht Owners School. Many Amel owners have added HDI exhaust elbows to their engines. I did. As far as I know, everyone is satisfied and all are very happy with the product and price. I assume that HDI will have the D3-110 part available in 4-6 weeks. The contact information I have is: HDI Marine Ltd
