I have a fx1 with some mods. I was thinking about playing around with some new carbs for the boat. I have a wet-jet 46 with intake sitting around. i hear alot about these wet-jets. My question is what is so great about these over a buckshot or blackjack 46?

what is great about them is they are real makuni 46's that started life as a non-oem 46. sometimes the a/m carbs like buckshot or blackjack start out as an OEM 44.
you can always have your real 46 worked on by someone.

I hear that the wet jet have better reedsI thought the only differences was the longer intake and 46 carb.

the WJ has a 1-pc manifold to where the reedblocks bolt directly to the same piece that the carb bolts onto. its a smoother trnsition and features a built-in reed stuffer-like casting..... and its a 46mm instead of a 44. id defintely bolt it on if i had it.

Bolt that intake and carb on. I run that on my FX-1 and blaster. You will notice the difference right away.
