johnny the preds are great carbs but dont run a scoop on them the forced air opens the metering flap more and makes it run very rich,run air filters on top
Nitro,
I was always told that a little rich was not a bad thing. If you are going to error, to error on the fat side. But I will keep that in mind ( wanna buy a new dooley scoop?).
A buddy of mine swears by them. He runs them on his jet boat, ski boat with a bbc, and on his blown bbc in a street rod. I think he even has a couple on the shelf just incase.
ive got a couple myself,but from personal experience if you run a scoop turn it backwards on these carbs,they meter great without the extra,the extra just adds to the top plate opening more turning the cam more and bingo your rich
the bud bog and monster truck guys love them but at the same time they never get enough speed going to over ffed them,if you buddy that runs them on the street has a scoop tell him to try them with out it or turn it around he will love the difference
My pig is so heavy and under powered that it aint going to move much faster than a mud bogger.
I will keep your advice under advisement, thanks.

i run a mech. oil pressure and boost and the rest are electric...i just like to know my oil pressure is real...the problem is routing the coppper tube all the way to the front of boat
Is that Mallory Unilite a 42 series?Mine is 25 converted to 37 series. Gauges are electric, plus mechanical O/P and F/P on the engine.
ok cool.. not enough answers to see a trend but..
Basically what I see is
if it's Electrical run Elec.. ie: battery, alt and so forth
if its Mechanical run Mech.. ie: oil, fuel, boost etc etc..
correct?
I'm with DelawareDave just run all Elc gauges in the dash and a mech. OP and FP on the motor
ok I got the trailor problem solved.. I found a refurbished Stratos 16.5 trailor, within the budget.. has new everything including wheels, tires and bearings, all new LED lights, everything on the tongue is new - straps, hitch and so forth only thing I see I'll have to redo is the paint, its a greyish color.. soon as I get it I'll pop a couple pics up..
