I have to say no on this one. I always thought they came with a 2bbl. I just took a look in the diaries and found the V6's show the 2bbl's. Without internal engine work, a larger carb usually doesn't do much. How does yours run?

Peter, I looked at your boat and thought that setup was aftermarket.

Peter you'll have to look on your distributor for a make and model and then check here-
http://www.shopatron.com/index/591.0.26484.26485.0.0.0 It might be best to call them and ask.Then check with someone like Summit,they seem to have good prices. |

Hi all I got the boat from skyfuzz it seems to run great. I figured it was an aftermarket set up. I wouldnt mind an electronic ignition in it or maybe just a super coil to spark it a bit hotter.

Peter, Without other engine mods, I don't feel you will gain anything except starting IF you have a starting problem. I'm not real big on the pointless conversions. I've run one of my boats for 28 years without a tune up and do know that if stuck due to a point issue that I can borrow my wifes nail file to get home. With the pointless you are stuck! Maybe this summer I'll give it a tune up!

I would say that electronic ignition makes my boat more responsive on acceleration.
