Im confused is thier another Colorado river that I dont know about ?Yes there are two that i know of. The one here in Texas starts in NW Texas and runs to the Gulf Of Mexico
They make Stringer and Floor Mount Throttle and Divertor controls. I have a 1/4 stringer with Bench to Bench and floor mount throttle and Hydro divertorThe point i was trying to make and did not clairfy well, ok not at all was with a bench to bench and a floor the manul PD would be between your legs and that i do not like. You have a hdraulic so no worries there.
Yes didn't Todd have one like thatThe General? He has V Drive hydro and got swamped that is why his went under.
That is about where my pumps sits and there is a guy here locally that makes fiberglass inverted transom covers. Keeps the handhole outside the boat as the glass goes "inside the boat. He sells them for 225 uncut and with whitegel. I can send you a picture of what they look like if you want me too?Nope ......
The suction housing was powder coated and I'm not going through that again over a hand hole cover.
I can weld aluminum so I can modify some shiz .
I'm more concerned with the handling aspect ......

None of mine ever even required an inpection. Just went there with the bill of sale or the old reg, transfered it over, 35 bucks later, I got regs and stickers. Arizona also does NOT title watercraft. 2 of my boats are from Cali and I still have the Cali titles for them JIC.Ray the numbers on my boat came from this web site. i think they are a great deal at $40.00 for the set several fonts and colors to chose from
Still have the Cali stickers on the Moo, need to order or have Brad make some cool AZ ones like the Moo has now, not putting Mailbox letters on it.

Right there is always that someone who is the "one up dude"I know.....
I'm sure someone will chime in with the usual "Hey , I built a 1000 hp small block blah blah blah with a single quadrajunk carb!"
All I can say is research research research !

Stuart,what sucks about this is i did not choose them. They came recommened to me i was looking at TFS or Edelbrocks is where i had it narrowed down to. A "friend" wh works at a head shop hyped them up big time and said they would work just as well needless to say i am not happy with his recomendation. I am stuck with them for next season lessoned learned go with the gut
Sorry that you got sucked into the Pro-Comp heads. Sometimes there's a very good reason parts are cheap; Pro- Comp is a prime example.
Paul (Lakesonly) is a very good source to talk to. Hopefully he can help you out on this to get the best out of what you have.
FYI, My 10.2:1 compression 512" (4.44x4.14) with a solid roller and TFS A-460's with a single domi made 710 hp at 6,000 and 661 lbs. ft at 5,000 many years ago ('92). It was a pretty small roller.
Good luck on your project, hopefully you'll be able to afford to ditch the Pro-Comps in a year or two. Like to see you cam specs and dyno sheet like Paul said. Where was that trq number ?

Got the dyno sheets. Please post the camshaft part number and/or profile. The torque numbers look pretty good. Based on that curve and also the peak hp I suspect that a bigger camshaft will make a notable difference.They did run it again on Saturday using the 1.8 rockers and it gained 22 HP and pushed out the max torque 300 RPM. I am trying to locate the cam card but a tuff job as my house is in shambles right now. I am having the inside painted and it is a total mess. Crap is in every which room shoved to the center and coverd what a pain in the a$$

Stuart,Yeah i am little pissed to say the least about what is going on. I had a friend who works for a head shop recomend the heads and i know my cam could be a little bigger still not happy with the dyno results. I sent Paul my dyno sheet as I could not post it as it is a PDF file and I have no way to scan it in and then post. I was wrong on the numbers also. It made 589 ft/lb and 517 hp make HP at 5,400. I will change the heads and cam now if that is the issue and chalk it up to lessoned learned. I have a stock 460 in my Sanger and i think the heads and cam will work perfect in that boat. Time to get new ones for the 514 that is going to go in the youngblood.

the fuelpump washerlobe is in there bolted to the cam gear...i didnt forget that...seems to be pumpingReally stupid ? but you have the fuel coming in on the in and going out on the out?
but i dont know ....just really tired and back is sore...ill figure it out sunday when i get home......thanks brad!!
i guess chromey couldnt get it fired last night...something to do with fuel pressure...tried 2 different pumps, still no dice. i bet he forgot the lobe thing the fuel pump arm rides onEcntric (sp) gear will get you everytimeprobably somethin simple.
anyways, he is in a bind trying to get to needles this weekend with the family....so im lending him the southwind cruiser.
The Chromeys will be on the water this weekend afterall.
No, the intake port is not like the SCJ at all. As delivered, there is nothing about the ProComp intake ports that resemble the SCJ heads. Nothing. They are modeled after the D3VE intake port, in fact they are a direct copy of a D3VE intake port, but with less room to grow than the factory iron D3VE. Even a CJ port match (which refers to a gasket match at the port entry only and not the entire intake port architecture) can be more effectively executed on the factory iron heads than the ProComp head (unless you do a ridiculous amount of welding on the outside of the intake ports of the Procomp Heads). The combustion chamber shape is modeled after the D3VE's 95 cc chamber, not the CJ's superiorly shaped 72cc chamber.email sent
Whomever is suggesting that the ProComp head is based on an SCJ head is grossly in error. I see this all the time with non-Ford enthusiasts that are instantly wowed by the big intake ports of these passenger car engines and immediatey assume "it must be a Cobra Jet!"
But these are the head you are running and you want more power. Please post a dyno sheet and the camshaft part number.
