Factory Q-jets on Olds 455s were 810 CFM stock! On cars! With smaller cams! Why go smaller on the carb? An 850 DP works great on a Crosswind dual plane intake for the Olds. I have a new one, and I have an Olds O4B intake too. Start with the stock jets and change the power valve to a 45 (which actually starts the enrichment at 4.5" mercury. The Comp 280 is one of the better (but not the best) jetboat cam with log exhausts. TIMINATOR
