Default procharger set

What is the correct way to set up a m1 procharger, on a 502 mag engine for a 24 ft outlaw sst? please help so my mechanic can correct any problems the original owner created when he installed the procharger.

Set up?

I purchased the boat with the charger on it. It did not come with any manuals, the second owner lost all of the info. I just want to make sure it was done correctly, Also some guys on this site said you can't trust what procharger says for installation. You have to do it differently, becasue the way they have it set up will destroy your pistons and engine rather quickly. So i am at a loss. I don't know what to think, all i want to make sure it was done properly and it won't blow up this 2009 crated 502 mag. I am just trying to double check everything before i find out the expensive way

Need more info.

502 Mag. That doesn't tell me much.
Carb? EFI? A 2009 assumes that it is an EFI, but was it purchased complete with induction system or as a longblock with heads only?

Which Procharger setup is it? What mods were performed?

If you want specific answers, you need to ask specific questions. The more details you give, the more you get.

It is carburated, m1 procharger, other modifications not sure becasue of the 2nd owner knew nothing about. My mechanic has the boat now, and I will have to get more info from him. Sorry for the lake of information

fuel delivery, pressure critical !!!! need to have a remote elec fuel pressure gauge, need boost referenced regulator, carb should already be done and in the procharger carb box ? but when you buy something like this who knows, keep timing in the 28 deg total area, without a wideband 02 sensor have to tune with spark plug readings..and thats crap shoot sometimes...I run a aeromotive A1000 pump, #10 line, and a return back to the tank..the only correct way to do it and thats not what instructions say...you can get the install manual from procharger, I did last year..good luck..Rob

i like to use a little more timing,,32*..your carberator will need to be set up as a boost referance carb..the carberator will need solid floats,if they are brass they will crush under boost.the rear jets will need jet extensions to move the jets further back in the float bowl because under boost the fuel is forced towards the back of the carberator..if you put bigget jets in the carb you will also have to drill out passages that go to the power valves to move more fuel.

google boost referanced carberator and do some reading..

If you are using a mechanic hope he knows H/P setups and not just a normal guy...
