Above Waterline			1
In addition to considerations described earlier, a
customer-supplied silencer should be installed with its
outlet at a maximum of 10 horizontal ft. (3 m) from the
center of the engine’s exhaust outlet (see Figure 6-17).
A typical silencer should be mounted with the inlet and			2
outlet level and with the drain plug down. The silencer
may require two supporting brackets or hanger straps			3
for installation to stringers or other suitable structure.
Any “lift”in the exhaust line to improve silencing must be
below the engine exhaust manifold outlet.
