    New-style 6.2 SeaCore Closed Cooling Question . . .

    threads are 1/2-13. per my guy, its a seawater pressure port for a seawater sensor. however since you already have a seawater pressure sensor on the PS cooler, you could get a small pencil anode in there if you wanted.

    New-style 6.2 SeaCore Closed Cooling Question . . .

    actually, looking at where it it, that is most likely where an annode would go - the inlet side of the HX tube side. threads are 1/2-13 with o-ring. anode would be 10mm or 3/8" will have to pull the end cap to determine how long of a pencil you can use before hitting the dividers
