Now you need a carb... OR, still not too late to EFI it.

I may EFI the 460 going in the Enforcer with this type of setup.

My marine Demon is on Ebay. It's an 850 and USCG approved for use under an engine cover.

Ive been thinking . I have an old blown up Powerstroke motor sitting out back , and it still has the entire turbo setup on it . Maybe I should leave the heads alone and adapt the big turbo from the powerstroke onto the boat . I have most of the stuff to make it work , just need plumbing mostly . I could do that with either the manifolds I have , or a set of Camaro headers that are easily found . What do y'all think ?

I remember reading up on this once. The problem with a diesel turbo is that the diesel engines turn a lot slower. The diesel turbos will generally be spooled up by 2,500rpm. That low RMP they turn doesn't bode well with a gas motor. Also, the volume is low, but the PSI is high. They work good with two on a gas V8, but you'll need a wastegate to bleed off the extra pressure. You'll get some boost, but not like using a T72 or something along that line.
HOWEVER, I'm NOT a turbo expert, but I would play around with a cheapo throw away Ebay turbo just to try it out.

With a built in wastegate too!
EDIT: Forgot you're running a carb. Add the cost of a blow thru carb.

Another one a little more affordable.

There is a member here who we dont see much anymore called Impatient1 who has been playing with turbos on these motors for awhile , and has a turbo charged LS in his boat now . He still shows up over on Performance Boats from time to time . Anyway , I believe he is running a Cat industrial turbo on his motor . I will try to find his thread and read up on what he did with his .

I got the primer and everything to spray the primer picked up , and a nice shiny new gun to spray with . But I decided to put off spraying it , it got cold and wet out this evening . I still have a few odds and ends to take care o before spraying , and I have to tape up the boat . By the time I got the shop clean enough to even turn on the heat in there I was tired of looking at it for the day .
