Tony Stewart, a drag racer in Austin Texas has designed a new intake manifold for the 084 engine that balances the flow to the cylinders so 2 of the cylinders don't run leaner than the other 2. This intake will be setup for a holley 350 cfm carb. The carb is a progresive linkage carb with one barrell opening before the other. The booster venturies will have to be changed to annular boosters to reduce the flow and lower the cfm. Tony said the last tuning test should be complete this weekend and the proper jeting would be determined. This change may get us close to 60 HP from the 084.
Airboat Pro's will be selling these intakes when final testing is complete. We will also be locating some of these Holley 2 barrell carbs to set up with the annular boosters.
Circle S Manufacturing is designing a new cogged belt drive using the HD belt and it should be ready soon.
I don't have the cost of these performance items worked out but should have it in a week or two.
Thanks, Chuck
