Michael,

Could you tell me more about the Groco strainer that you installed ?
Is it one of the ARG series ? http://www.groco.net/00-strrns/arg.htm
What size did you choose ?
Stayed with the original 1/2" or increased size of thruhull and strainer ?
The ARG series are beefy items.
The 1/2" and 3/4" pipe size strainers are about 6.5" high, 4.5" wide and
5.5" deep.
Do you have a photo of where you mounted it by chance ?

Thank you,
Jonathan
