It runs very well, but the boat is heavy and it takes it a bit to get it up on plane, but once leveled out the engine handles the boat really well. Quesiton is, with the set up you are offering, what type of performance/economy difference can I expect? I know. YMMV. |

I doubt you'd see any dramatic difference. A new carb will probably run
better over all but it won't be night and day. The aluminum intake will take about 20lb off your tail end. Have you moved the battery(s) to the front? Try to stow only light weight items in the aft compartments. "Tim" wrote in message ...

I sold an extra torque converter which I didn't need for my International M-TA tractor for more than I paid for it by a factor of ten. And I bought the thing on Ebay originally. :) -- I dont know what your problem is, but I'll bet its hard to pronounce. |

Only child syndrome :-) I think it cost around 80 bucks. Like many xmas presents the novelty wore off after a few months. It decorated a spot in our game room but the upright galaga crowded it out a few years back and it's been in the attic ever since. I sort of collect piles of extraneous stuff and occasionally list a group of things on ebay. Thus the reason it's all so unrelated. This pile is going to pay for the assorted gaskets and new bellows to put the boat back together after I finish my transom repair :-) You are right about never knowing what someone will pay on ebay. |
