Is it really that difficult?

We want water that is hot as hell, but it has to go somewhere so it doesn't get too hot.. Diverting the blower and engine exhaust is the only way to do it IMO..

I have a 06' and 05' Apex and they both dump water.. I'm real intrested in the Apex GTX, I'll just have to wait 8-10 years to pick up someones used POS!!

With moving parts inside the HXer box it is more important to make sure you keep overflows to a minimum..

The new Gtx diverts the exhaust, at least that's what it looks like to me.. I was looking into it because I noticed they changed the heat control lever position.. I saw it on @Dan Lofsten post, and wondered what they did.. Maybe he can fill us in..

I just know it diverts the exhaust from heating water so much.
Not really sure how It works...

You can actually hear the exhaust change pitch a little when you change lever position.

Is Rick Aranda, Scott Harlib or any other SS guru on this bulletin board? Will this work better than the CAT thermal junk valve?http://www.jondon.com/ea-vlv-thrml-rlf-180deg-general-pumps.html

Thanks for tagging him, maybe he’s on vacation. I’ll have to make time to call SS today.

I wouldn't trust that barb fitting under high temps.
