ok, 1st 34 deg timing to much..max 30, is the carb in the procharger box ? if so a 800 carb is what you need, but should be able to get the 850 to work..do you have a boost referenced fuel pressure regulator ? need to..what boost are you trying to run ? different carbs have a different fuel signal and may require bigger or smaller jets..I'm running a HP500 with a M3SC had carb done by prosystems..still tuning myself..

Hey Brian, change the carb to the Demon. Timing is fine at 34* and if you need jets, let me know. I'll drop off my selection you can replace what you use. I have gaskets and some power valves too!
Let me know!

Thanks to all for replys. Gonna try the demon and work off it. Called Jegs for a c.f.m recommendation. for a 502 that would turn 5k rpm and under and it figured out to be around 732cfm or so. guy told me BG demon locked the door 5 months ago. Whats out there is all thats left..,. Wow. B.G down. They've been aroung since i was a kid. Bummer....

I put a pair of Holley 800CFM Marine DP on the same engines.
There is another guy Balllon78 that did the exact same thing.
I took the brand new engines apart and changed the cams to RMBUILDER cams and springs. And put adjustable roller rockers on also. I jetted it up some and I spin it 5,000 at will

Kinda, sorta. I put demon carb on, rejetted slightly, and set timing to 34 degrees. Run around 63 mph on gps @5200 in my 27' foot envision last year. Put about 6 hours on it. Brought it home for the winter. winterized and stored inside. Brought out 2 weeks ago to get ready for summer fun. Crankcase full of water. Working on that part now. Talked with guys who worked on both these motors at victory and there was a little story behind them unfortunetely that i wasnt told. Hope all goes well with yours.
