Thanks for the input guys, I sent him four 750 Holley`s this afternoon and I am looking forward to go boating without having to change 16 plugs for a change:eek:

WETTE VETTE, What can you tell me about the 980 that you had. I have just bought it from jagrlj. Thanks, The Ironman.

Dean did a stage 5 mod to a 1050 Dominator on my previous boat. After he did the modifications it was about 95% of where I wanted it to be. Prior to Deans mods it would barely run, coal black transon etc. I think the biggest reason he couldn't get it "perfect" is the fact I was over carbed for my set-up. Good results and great turnaround times. I think Dean puposely sets up his carbs a tad rich for safety issues, in my app I took out 2 jets sizes all the way around.

Ironman, give me a call and we can discuss the stage 5 850 that you purchased from Jamie.

blown formula 04-22-2002 06:31 PM

93 formula here....Yes, I am still satisfied. Just turn the key & instant starts. I have never, ever had to touch the carb since installed. As for "J tubes", I gues if you don't send the carb with them, then you don't get any back. Mine has them as required. :D
If you call Dean, he will talk to you. That alone is worth some dollars.
As for the $1100.00 bill mention by another for two carbs, it was NOT just a rebuild to the carbs, but milling, drilling, filling, metering, flowing venturi's, etc. There's more to it than a $35.00 carb kit from Auto Zone !! Dean Nickerson is an excellent choice for carb work. I got mine back asap....shipped Monday, returned on friday of the same week(overnight shipping was $55.00 each way). I could not be happier! :D

I hope I have the same results!
