GM J&T I/B 6V-92TA Heat Exchanger Thermostat Housing - furiarte - 03-14-2022
I recently bought a 1999 Tiara Sportsfisherman that is powered by two GM J&T I/B 6V-92TA (mechanical, not DDEC). The serial numbers are 6VF219303 (port) and 6VF219300 (starboard).
We noticed that the raw water/fresh water cooling needed major cleaning, and while doing that, we found out that the housing for the Thermostat of one of the motors was somewhat corroded where it connects to a hose (not where it connects to the Heat Exchanger-photo attached).
I´ve called J&T and they say it is a DD part. Called DD and they say its a J&T part.
Any suggestions/ideas on where to find a replacement for the thermostat housing?
Thanks!

You may have to get someone to weld a new nipple in your housing
I would love to hear those 92s grabbing air.
