    Reducing intake volume on 61x manifold....

    So according to something SuperTune posted in a recent jetting thread, Group K does something to reduce the volume of the intake on 61x manifolds to improve the response for freestyle. For owners that are absolutely dead set on running a single carb setup anyway, we would strongly recommend...

    Hood ratchet straps....Brap straps....

    So I am going to be building my own and wanted some input on strap material and other suggestions. McMaster has stainless ratchet mechanisms for $16.03 here. And they have the webbing here. I'm a bit torn on what webbing to get. I like both the Polypropylene and the Polyester webbing...

    Which impeller to use of these 2...

    So I'm putting together my pump and after getting the bearings on I need to decide on an impeller. I have 2 here in front of me, one is a Skat 9-17 and the other is a Skat 14.5-18.5 that is cut back to 1mm from the blades. I can also put the 9-17 in the lathe and take off 3mm if that makes a...

    When good threads go bad...

    So this seems to be happening a lot lately. Things go so far on topic, then spiral wildly out of control resulting in the thread being locked. The off topic posts may make some people think twice before posting in the middle of a pissing match information that may be important to the topic at...

    Best RTV for hull

    Just curious what everyone's using to RTV stuff around the hull on things like steering tube, cooling tubes, mid-shaft housing, pissers, etc. I could probably get away with 5200 on cooling tubes and steering tube, but surely not the housing and pissers.

    Can't find an old thread about MSD TL pics

    Seems like "TL" is in the title, but I can't search for "TL". Google advanced search was no help either. I know it was a thread where the poster was wanting pictures of TL systems installed.

    Diet foods...what do you like???

    So I've mentioned in a couple other threads that I'm starting a diet. Nothing drastic. I'm just counting calories and being conscious of the value of everything that I eat. I wanted to start a list of things that taste good and are filling without be very high on the calorie scale. My light...

    My weight loss/food journal...

    Instead of piggy-backing off of Kraqus' journal, I thought I'd start my own. I started Yesterday with eating less and writing down my calories. Today I start a program at the YMCA called "Boot Camp Extreme". They take your weight and give you a food journal and such. I'm sure it will kick my...

    Starter amp draw...

    Anybody know what the starter amp draw is on a Super Jet? I need some battery cables and around here all I can get is either 4 gauge, or 8 gauge. I know on here it's recommended to use 6 gauge. Also, I'd like to use some quick connects (Anderson style, or as McMaster calls them, North...

    Buyer/Seller/Parts dispute...your opinions please...

    Sorry, but I didn't really want to post this in "Buyer/Seller Feedback - Negative" because it's not really a negative feedback, at this point it's just a neutral dispute. I'm not going to say who the other party is. He is free to add his input if he desires. I'm looking for a resolution that...

    Amazing Carbon/Kevlar sheers!

    My standard garage sheers never really worked for fiberglass work, so I always grabbed my J.A. Henckles kitchen sheers and they cut right through the fiberglass with no problems. Now I've got some Carbon/Kevlar here that I'm cutting and the kitchen sheers do fine against the grain (albeit slow)...

    Differences in wrist pins...OE vs Wiseco...

    So I am putting together a 61x/61x engine, and have Wiseco pistons and new Kawi wrist pin bearings. The wrist pins that came with this setup (used top end) looked pretty bad, so I ordered new OE wrist pins PN 61x-11633-00 which said it's for 61x 701s. I'm sitting here assembling the engine and I...

    Engine sat top end off, got dust inside....

    So I'm finally getting around to putting my engine back together. I was going to take it all the way apart and do some case porting/clean-up on these 61x cases so I never really worried about covering it up. Now I just want to put it back together, but I noticed some dust in the intake and on...

    Any engine assembly guides online....

    Getting ready to put together my 61x/61x engine with Wiseco pistons and Kawi wrist pin bearings. I'm looking for a general guide for assembling (torque specs, sealant, tricks, tips, etc). I don't have a service manual, so if anyone knows of an online version, that would be great. Also looking...

    Yamaha wrist pin bearing...a little tech info...

    So I had some wrist pin bearing posted in the Want to Buy section and Chuck chimed in and said to go with Kawasaki small pin bearings. I sent him a PM and asked why and he responded with: So I did a little research and found that Wiseco's dimensions for Yamaha 701 & 760 wrist pin bearings are...

    Rubber 'thing' on a mid-shaft housing...what is it?

    Sorry, another dumb question. My SJ has been apart for 3 years and it wasn't even close to complete when I got it. So, as the topic states, what's that rubber bumper/snubber/nipple thing that pushes into the hole on the mid-shaft housing. Is it there to support the cover that goes over the...
