Buddy called R3 and he said the fuel switches are wired to gauge selectors. He was correct, the pins were pulled so you could see the arms move. I got them put back in and all is right there.
Changed out the wheel and did some cleaning on the blowers. I'm making 5# with this set up. Going to check pulley numbers and get the next size. Lot's of chrome in the engine compartment once I started cleaning. After market heads, studs, MSD boxes, etc. Pretty nice set up.

One comment; I would be concerned with the breather hose sizing coming off the valve cover, if thats what Iam seeing.

Put IMCO splash plates on the drives gets on plane great now. I'm wondering if it would make the boat carry the bow some or I just didn't notice it before?

Tore into "Blown Three Times" last week, she's going to "Staggered Blown Twice" now. Never done a conversion, but it's due for this one. The engine compartment was a mess and the tail pipes needed redone. I hope it looks like new when I'm done and runs well.
