As long as this engine has been sitting after the carbs are rebuilt you should replace the fuel pump diaphragms that are probably toast, internal fuel lines will be brittle and should be replaced also. When you fire this thing up assuming it is oil injected make sure you start it on premix oil and gas at 50-1 or even 24-1 and don't rev it up to see how good it sounds! Let it run off idle for a good 20 minutes before "playing" with it. It's 50/50 if it will live or not. Roller bearing and journal pitting from rust likely has occurred considering the boat looked like it was parked and left for dead but miracles do happen and I've had 60 year old barn find outboards laying in the dirt that I've brought back to life to still purr like kittens after a complete systems upgrade so I'll keep my fingers crossed.
Good job Matt,Its very common for the main jet sizes to be different between carbs, typically slightly smaller as you go down for inline engines. There is something very satisfying about bringing something back to life thats been left for dead. I recently purchased 16 outboards from an older gentleman ranging from 1932 to 1980, each full of mud dobber nests, rotten wiring,most all were original that haven't been run in 50-60+ years, engine designs I've never worked on before and each will tell me their own story. Nothing better than going through all their issues, finding parts and hearing them pop for the first time when you pull the starter over in the test tank.
Whatsup?
I hate to say this but 2GA marine battery is made up of much more finer strands of wire. This makes it much more flexible and resistant to fatigue cracking. Further more the higher number of fine wires increases the surface area in the cable and thereby the amount of amperage the cable can cary.
