Holley 1050 or Quick Fuel 1050
I need to put a new carb on a 540. It has a Dart 4500 intake. I have had faw 540's wth Holleys but have never had a Quick Fuel carb. I see good things about them but have a few questions. How are they to tune compared to the Dominator? Do they use the same fuel inlet lines? How is their drivability for those of you that have them on your boats?

The new Holleys and quick fuels are very tuneable. If looking for a "marine" carb, holley only offers it in the above carb benperfected mentioned. Its a good carb, but lacking some modern features. Quick fuel, offers a "marine" dominator, with modern features, and the "black diamond" coating, which is very nice. My buddy just purchased a pair of their 850 "marine" carbs, and is happy with them.
Here is the carb Benperfected is talking about
