Laker I didn't see your reply
Hey Rude thanks for the reply. I have another set of carbs off a 1990 48 with 55D mains & 56 low speed jets. These carbs are not the all metal body they have the plastic top. Gonna run when weather gets better. I read alot about this motor and I am wondering if the exhaust port timing is different on the 48 & 50. If so I may reun better with the stock 40 carbs & reed stops. Hey give me a call if you get time. Bobby @ 337-764-5534. Thanks
wow almost 200,000:cool:
Hi Guys, new to the site, but not to boating! :)
Tim, I think the engine your showing on page 61 is probably the engine I have now? I purchased it from Mick Nolan. I run the boat in Northern Michigan now. Amazing Power!

Yep, that one's one of only three built with enclosed exhaust for harassment-free laking. Enjoy!

920cc with the Mod 50 straight front. A lot of guys here in AU in the 90's ran similar power heads with a great deal of success. I had one on the stock SST60 mid section and nitro gear box. The difference between the stock SST60 and this engine was 1,000 rpm. Ran a kilo averaged 88mph on my Mono and got a one way speed of over 90mph. Had great fun outrunning the F3 tunnels with quick foots to the first buoy and did beat a few of the slower F3 boats.

Just out of curiosity... what would i be searching for if i wanted to use the 4 over 4 or 5 over 5 reed block front half on a 56ci? Converting my motor to EFI via microsquirt and im not racing so im not tied to any rules or regs.
