Sierra Exhaust Elbow Mounting Kit 18-8535, Blocked Gasket, Closed Cooling System, Fits Risers 18-1939, 18-1999, 18-1907
The Sierra 18-8535 Exhaust Elbow Mounting Kit is a blocked-gasket mounting kit built for marine engines running a closed cooling system. It is used on Chrysler inboard exhaust manifold setups and installs with exhaust risers 18-1939, 18-1999, and 18-1907, making it a direct match for boats already running one of those risers. The kit includes the 18-0476-1 elbow gasket, the blocked-style gasket required for closed cooling systems, so the elbow-to-riser joint seals correctly without introducing raw water into a closed loop. Choosing the correct gasket type matters: an open-gasket kit is intended for open (raw water) cooling systems, while this 18-8535 kit's blocked gasket is specifically for closed systems, so installers should confirm their cooling configuration before ordering. The kit is compact and lightweight, finished in white, and is sized to drop into the existing elbow mounting hardware on compatible risers. It is sold as a complete small-parts kit rather than an individual gasket, so the correct blocked elbow gasket is on hand at install time instead of being sourced separately.
