Jk the engines will be fine with a 174, or 250 blower.

Here you go http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...rgers-bbc.html

I have seen them at that price with carbs, so make an offer for the pair. Nickerson has the hot set up for carbs on these blowers, mine ran like EFI's after the mods.

To answer your question yes the blowers add a lot o TQ, so the boat will pull harder and get on plane a lot faster. Not sure if that is better for tubing or not.
