Hi, first time using this forum. I have an older 701 Yamaha SuperJet that I am overhauling. I need to replace several of the motor mounts along with ordering a complete gasket set. The crank (bearings/rods), pistons and rings are in great shape. I am also having to replace the jet pump ware ring (housing). My questions:
1) OK to use aftermarket web sights to purchase the motor mounts and the gasket set, or should I go with OEM parts. Any recommendations on good web sites?
2) The ware ring has a small area where the impeller is hitting. I do a good bit of wave jumping and was told that I may want to look into getting the housing bored out and putting in a replaceable plastic liner (due to the sand in the surf). Good or bad idea?
3) Lastly, I recently moved to Southern CA (Corona), anyone know of any good areas to go wave jumping out here? I used to live in Va. Bch. and would often go to either the pier or jetty to wave jump.
Thanks for any input.
