Looks good. My dad just put a place diverter on his Berkley 12JE. My god that thing is so much fun to play with!! Plus the boat rides alot better too. Boat has the same motor too, old Smogger 455. How big are you going on your carb??

Tossed on a 750 and actually solved the problem. But I was just curious what you were gonna be running on there.

We have a diverter...just not a Place diverter....the diverter is mounted on the nozzle and that whole assembly is still off from where i painted it...and it was easier to mount the drive in the boat without it...
