I’d invest in some contact cleaner WD-40 makes it now or just order aftermarket off Amazon,, but any and all point to point contact on electrical I would definitely hit it with the contact cleaner, and any and all mechanical contact id lithium grease those while apart and doth those done it’ll be as new when back together.. won’t have to be chasing down short circuit later.. you’ll be enjoying your finished project..

Nice job on the install Andy. I honesty would have just found a good quadrabog guy to rebuild the old carb. Just FYI marine applications are sometimes different from automotive. I've seen carbs and intakes machined at a slight angle lless than 90 degrees from the block to keep fuel levels in the carb correct when the boat is getting out of the hole and trimming out on plane. Thanks for posting.

Good point, I never thought about a different intake to compensate for boat ride angles. This customer wanted the smooth easy starts EFI provides. I think they are going to enjoy its performance.
