Re: MSD Distributor rust

I think it is inexcusable for a distributor, sold as a marine unit, to rust up the way they do.
Bought one MSD setup on first boat, rusted every year. Last MSD junk i ever bought.

Re: 5 mph gain after Whipple install, something wrong??

If this is a carbureted (radial) entry 2.3, the max. is about 675 hp. The axial entry (injected) is good to 700hp.
You should be feeding engine oil through the s/c at higher s/c speeds too.

Re: 5 mph gain after Whipple install, something wrong??

Even a 3.3 is out of it's efficiency range on a 540. You will have to spin it up pretty hard, 14,000? max. SC rpm. Better yet, look for another 2.3 and intake and go with a quad rotor :D

Re: Thermostatic oil cooler?

I would say to keep steam pockets from forming. My motor tilts back a ways, I will probably do a 3/16" hole at top of t-stat.

Re: engine flush kits

Or, you can get a tee that is threaded on one end from rex marine and use that in conjunction with the cp quick disconnect.

Re: engine flush kits

cp performance sells a stainless tee, hose and hull fitting so you don't even need to open the hatch.
