For one ride I cut off flow but it didn`t seem to affect them much.... but I didn`t have enough time to play with tune.
Water at idle really makes such a big difference?
Yep, especially if they were tuned for idle without the chillers and especially with the cool water temps of Lake Michigan.

I was at ROTO with 80* water but yes, 3 turns out on the carbs vs. 1.5 without chillers. I`ll be re rigging that set up. with engines in it is hard to put in a separate pickup.

VortechSS , by all accounts I lost 3 mph on the big end and nowhere else. Actually picked up 3mph at cruise (different ratio drives)
However totally worth it , she flies straight and the hop is gone.

Tfarmer turned me on to this mod and sold me his 5`s. Those Canadian farmers... they`re alright

How are you going to break 100 if you keep making it slower? :D

Since you added intercoolers are you going to get some party pulleys? :ernaehrung004:

ICDEDPPL 10-21-2018 12:50 AM
I changed pulleys from -3% to over drive the blower at 2%. ends up being about the sme boost (7psi) with chillers. At the end of the day trying to make this heavy 80`s era boat fast is a waste of time. I got 90mph out of her once. I`m fine with that. At this point reliability is my main concern.

Yep, guys spend a fortune trying to make them fast, I learned with the mistress, reliable summers are way more fun....

I agree, this top gun is a blast at 70-73... that's all she has but puts a huge smile on my face... I mean 90-93 would not suck though LOL
