I doubt Dyno facilities are common there. Try to get a carburetor that’s as set up as possible. Maybe pay to have one that’s been dyno tested and set up on a very similar engine to yours shipped over.
Yea...your right about dyno...there are no engines like my...the best we have are mercrusers 5.7...6.2....and 7.4...that is in liters we are in metrick sistem
.So i dont have spare parts everything i need i have to order from USA and wait for 20 days to come..wery expencive...I have found a carb it is a 750 i think it has 2 acc pumps and 2 floats holly and im making a blowthrou aut of him.

Id recommend buying one setup to be a blow through carb from CSU or someone like that. It would be cheap insurance. Your science experiment carburetor could blow up your whole engine. Try to copy a proven engine combination as much as possibleOriginally Posted by Zole

I run a blow through carb set up and if you don't have access to a dyno at least get a wide band o2 set up it will make adjusting the carb a little less difficult

Watched Engine Masters on TV (cable - motortrend channel) the other night, the episode they tested different blow thru carb hats and different positions of the hats with 8 02 sensors (1 per cylinder) and all i can say is yikes ! Oh, and try go find it on youtube or etc.
Believe episode is ‘ Carb Hats for Blowers ‘
