She's old tech but I love her anyway. Love that deep throated roar and all the torque!

That is a Great motor but, with gas headed to $3.00 a gallon an E-Tec would help with the fuel bill.![]()
so did you hop it up w/ the 225 carbs or no?

That is one thing I miss about my 96 Vindicator. The Ficht I have now runs flawlessly, but I miss the sound.But I do have to admit the Ficht is a lot better on oil and uses less gas.
I have the 1994 - 225 carbs; I need to get the 72d jets. Haven't put them on this year; probably next yr. The 200 runs good right now. It is cold blooded in the morning. I think the 200 uses less gas than those 225 carbs will but the 225 carbs have more and better adjustments and jets.
Well, I like my 97 200 Venom too. Would be nice to get that 25 extra horspower. I don't do a lot of wot running so the gas usage wouldn't be too noticable. They do have a sound of their own though don't they?

Gary, I have a 94 200 hp Venom. There's an issue with the jets in my motor. Not enough rpm(5250 rpm) with the 65 jets (too rich). I get 5800 rpm with the 62 jets but the tech says it runs too lean. Do you happen to know what jets are in your 200 carbs?
Stock on high speed for the 225 with the exception of the ho's were 72d. On the ho's, 76d.... FOR THE YEAR MODELS MENTIONED.....![]()
My 03 DI sure sounds sweet when at full trim I start backing off the throttle, it says HOWWWWWWWWWLWLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!! LOL I like this engine eons above the 225 Vindicator I had!! JMHO![]()
My 200 has 65s in the carbs; it is cold blooded first thing and if cooled down. I can run 6000 rpms but my boat is light. Question - can I put 76s in my 225 carbs and get the HO power or are the HO carbs bigger than the 225 regular carbs?
Oh - the 225 carbs I got have 67s in them??????????????? Why do many 225 carbs have 67s in em?????? These carbs are off a 94 motor.
Because they are not HO carbs!

Of all the 1994 200/225 carbs.....none show 67 mains.
Looks like someone switched um before I bought um. Do all 225 carbs come with 72ds generally say 94-98s?
I show 62-72-64 for the 1994 200 through 225.
Wow that is one big chick! Sounds like Queen Latifah!! CM
