My buddy is now running a hat. He was running the box before. I am pretty sure he gained some power, and the hat is much easier access for tuning carb. His throttle shafts are oringed so fuel doesn't escape and leak. I think he got his hat from steve morris.

Rob,

You have a .pdf file in your email. It should provide data on this very question. It was to large a file to post on OSO, sorry.

The hat is not uscg approved and neither is the oring or pressure fed sealed throttle shafts..if you have a fire on board and the carb is not in a box then the ins will deny the claim..

i have a friend that used a box first then used a hat,,really did not see any power increase..he did see more lower end power when i told him to get a more aggressive throttle linkage rod so the secondaries opened sooner..

Is there any chance you could email me a copy of the pdf file ? I tried sending you a pm but your box is full..
