Yeah, Sonny told me about the concept. Application looks good.
Since 1925, about 150 different racing outboards have been made.
I have been around these engines for some time. I never have raced a twin. No sense in it when it is cheaper to build and go faster in a triple.
At any rate, I have seen more than a handfull of folks try these two barrel carbs. Each and every one of them had problems. It was a constant battle. I have seen them run and run well, but like I said, it is a contant battle.
This is just my opinion.
Thanks, guys. This looks great. The progressive linkage looks great. I too will consider this. I love to work on the mill. Any ideas about jetting. Shut down the idle circuit on the secondaries? I suppose you could just jet to idle on both.
I understand the concept and the application seems proficient, but to what end? Will the secondary barrels be jetted differently?

I use this concept with the mercury laser injection. I have used the brucato SVS system and also used OMC looper throttle plates. The secondaries only operate from 3/4 throttle up. It is a real kick in the but when the secondaries open. I have done a couple of laser motors that can't be caught by a conventional 260 motor.
