Post Carb, and prop!
i have a 29 hp vanguard mudbuddy surface drive
im thinking about ordering the 35 hp stock carb from mudbuddy.
will the 35 hp carb fit my 29 hp van.
also, i want to order the mudbuddy big blade prop but not too sure if the engine can turn it.
any info will help.
if i can put the 35 carb on my engine, and turn the big blade prop, next thing will be exhaust!
thanks for any help!

Bet the carb and prop would work. I know a few with the 31 that put on a 35 carb

Recommend exhaust first as a basis for being able to flow more air in/out of the motor. Also get rid of the stock muffler that can come apart into your cylinders.

do heads/ exhaust before the carb... more fuel is pointless if you cant get more flow

If i put the 35 carb, and the big blade, it still wouldn't do anything until I put an exhaust?
It wouldn't run like a 35 hp?

Will the 35 hp carb line up and fit like my 29 carb?

I don't think it a direct bolt on like the 31/32 carb

More fuel will not give you more power if you don't have more exhaust and intake flow

Thanks!
I think I'll order the single crossover tonight.

And the 35 carb may not bolt up the same as my 29 carb?
