I've always loved the mechanical injection setups.  They look sweet.  Are you going to drive a fuel pump off the front of the motor or can you do a high pressure electrical pump?

With Mechanical fuel injection like mine you have to run a mechanical pump cam driven or driven by RPM. The pump is linear based on engine RPM. An electrical pump only flows one speed and one rate all the time. Electrical pumps are fine with a electronic fuel injection since the injectors open and close with a computer. The mechanical set ups are always open and they use pressure (flow rate) to control engine speeds and demands.

Hey Beav that foot throttle setup is badass. I know you bought the boat with it but do you have any idea where to find one or is it a custom deal?

You might want to try Bergeron in AZ. They make flat bottom stuff. you might be able to make something like it though. Its pretty simple. I will look around and see if I can find anyone making something like it. I can also take more pictures of the set up if you want to attempt to build it.

Come to think of it. MadSkillz here on the boards is a great fab guy and is making a similar pedal to the lighting set up. There is a bracket that bolts to the stringer and offsets the throttle. You would have the same pedal that I have. Just mounted differently.

Yeah ive seen the one Madskillz has built and im going to be paying him a visit one of these days after i finish all the repairs on my hull. I have a pretty standard stringer mount pedal but i really dig your setup. More pics would be great when you get a chance because im sure he could help me build something similar.
