    Dump Gun Use

    Like info from those who have used the 100 model dump gun. It talks about not using a 1/4 air fitting but the larger fittings will not screw in. Figure I'll need a new regulator because the one which have been using has an auto oiler on it. There was a mixing carb which came with it but maybe...

    454/502 knock sensor

    Need to buy another knock sensor. Listing shows 805544T as being superseded by 8M0077616. The issue is the older part is much easier to find and cost a bit less, so guess the question; Is the new one better then the older model?

    Transom Bolt hole size

    Need to redrill the holes in my transom, anyone know what size the holes are. My 9/16 bit barely goes in on the two holes I won't be redrilling, but this is also wood. The studs are 7/16 so going to 1/2 would work and could redrill if needed "IF" I can manage to keep the drill in the center
