You guys every deal with a single carb on a blower in a boat? Just an idead but I wanted to hear your guys pros and cons on the piece. Thanks

No info huh?

blowers cram in more air, therefore it requires more fuel.if you can keep it from detonating with a single carb on a small displacement motor, by all mean go for it.if i ran a single carb and was plannin on more than 3-4lbs boost, the carb would be a boost referenced dominator fo sho!

Well I have a 468 BBF and I was planning to run 4-5lbs of boost. My main concern is that a guy told me in a boat the dual carbs is essential to cool down the rotors with the gas flowing, with one carb in other words wouldn't cool the rotors enough to run in a boat. What do yah think that is true or a bunch of crap?

A blown 468 is a LOT of motor for a single carb. You could get away with it on a smallblock, but I would think you would be way undercarbed on a 468. Like impatient said, a dominator would be the only carb that might work.

Thanks for the advise. It's a real, realy mild blower motor and I was just seeing if I could get away with one cabr so I didn't have to spend some more money. But if you experienced guys thinks it's not enough then I wont

Besides, why would you want one carb? Two look way more cool and attract twice as many babes. I mean, that IS why we do this, right???

I know if I had the money for dual carbs and gas I wouldn't think twice about it! There's a guy on ebay selling a pair of blower calibrated 750's with fuel lines, linkage, regulator, high rise adapter plate, and scoop for like $800 so far. You guys think that would be too much carb for a mild 468 BBF?

With proper jetting I think it would work great for ya. Remember 468 cubes, is no mouse motor.
