How fast do you want to go? What kind of budget? Randy

whiprmz 01-28-2013 11:49 PM

i would like to get to 70 lol.prolly need to buy a new boat.was thinking of putting on a new four barrel intake and a four barrel carb.i no that wouldnt get me there but it might make it a little faster

The more info you can give about the boat & how much you can invest in it the more accurate the responses will be. A serial # for the engine & drive can tell exactly what your starting with then where to go from there. Welcome to OSO. Randy

What rpm are you turning now at WOT?

What outdrive? (Bravo 1, Alpha?)

Is it a stock Merc motor?

Sure that's not a throttle body on an EFI system? Never heard of a single barrel carb on a 350. Don't waste your time and money on that 350. If you want to run 70 pull that engine and sell it and replace it with a 454 mag. That's what came in a lot of them and they run 70 all day. You would have to squeeze everything you could get out of that 350 and then would loose any dependability. Putting a 4 barrel intake and carb on that will do nothing but make your wallet lighter.

+1 but a cheaper way to get to 70mph... put it on your trailer and find your nearest interstate :lolhit:

pull the intake and add a small blower, and exhaust

hammerit 01-30-2013 02:39 PM

SB 12-07-2014 08:33 PM

I'd hate to answer cause you might buy another boat before you do anything.

LOL,
