AC R42TS gap at 32,This is what Mark at Precision Marne recomended,It doesent load up,no signs of Det,never hurt one.Been changeing them around 30hr for the hell of it,

I Also ran NGK R5674-8 in my Scarab blower motor, Dustin also recomended this one to me when I first put the Whipple on.The AC's are cheaper also.

the 6 is pretty hot I run the 7's in my street car and when on the NOS the 8"s

Rob Thanks for the pics and the dyno sheet. I going to try out the pickup tube like yours. Is your mounted flush with the bottom of the boat or up or down a little. In the pics it look flush. Thanks for all your help!

The front lip is flush,so the water rolls of the transom edge and goes up into the pick up,I would mount to a little lower to grab more water, I am going to roll the edge of mine to see it it will get more water,not that there is a prob ,it just looks like it needs more water coming out the side.I need to make a fitting on the inlet side to mesure the pressure, i have some used spare 12's I might drill and get a gage reading from,just havent gotten around to it, 4 season on the Whipples:ernaehrung004:

I can take a closer pick
