I need new risers on my 7.4L Mercruisers and I found used stainless steel mercruiser risers for sale for cheaper than the new Barr cast risers. I would imagine this would be the best way to go since the rest of the engines are FWC and with stainless risers, in theory I would never have to touch the exhaust again. I have heard Mercruiser stopped making the stainless risers (pn 816900-C) because they wouldn't be constantly selling them every 5 years or so. Is there any reason not to go with the stainless and to keep replacing them with the cast ones? Thanks
