I know when fine tuning a setup some guys like to use a pressure gauge in the suction piece before the bowl. My question concerns the install details of this testing. I assume you tap the suction piece, but where? How close to the bowl and at what hour on the clock? How high should the gauge read? Does anyone have pics of this type of testing?
I've got a 21' closed bow vector with a twin turbo 454 making about 600HP w/ 6 lbs. boost. My pump is a Dominator AT-309 with a trimmed AA. It's about an A and 1/2 now. Open center ramp loader and 5/8" shoe set about 3/16" below radiused keel. What kind of numbers can I expect to see?
Greg. If you're reading this, Carson tells me that you think the boats all done at 72. Say it ain't so! Might you be available for an Elsinore test in a couple of Saturdays?
