Someone else had cut the stator harness at some point... The connections were all corroded so I redid them and put heat shrink on each one. I just didn’t have any heat shrink large enough to cover all the wires. Should I be worried about this?

Finally done. Tomorrow she goes in the ski. Took me a while, but hey it was my first motor build....

@augustaf thanks for the tip! Worked perfect

Still gonna send it

JM is the business. Helped me select things properly for my build and has provided tons of advice along the way. Even had a custom exhaust coupler made for me. I have no problem giving Chris all my money lol

Such a sick vid

About to drill and tap my factory pipe mani for dual cooling. But I need some advice because I really don’t want to f**k it up lol. Any tips? Is there a particular location to drill out? I know the general location where it should be but just want to check with those who have done it before to...

Cool thanks for the advice all. I think I’m just going to run it as is for now. I scored a waveraider with a 62t so I plan to build that motor this year and put it in my tc. So I will have the pipe bored to match that motor. Then this 61x will go in my square. I asked Chris and he said it would...

Finally stepped up and got a mag pump. But I am unsure how to properly run dual cooling? I’m using a 718 61x with a head and b pipe. Head is not an ADA but has one water fitting on either end like the ADA. The pipe is brand new so only one water fitting in the mani. Also I got a fcv (which I...

Bought a brand new b pipe for my build. I’m about to put everything together but lots of people are saying that I should bore my head pipe and manifold to 50mm (at least). Want to get this done before she goes together so that I don’t have to worry about it later. Does anyone know where I can...

Got my engine cases all painted and everything should be ready to assemble! I’m pretty stoked on how it turned out. It was a b*tch to mask everything off but it paid off in the end. Big thanks to @yurkanip for blasting the cases! Now it’s time to reassemble. I have a new crank and ported top...

Finally got my pump built. Thanks to @JetManiac and @McDog for pointing out the problem with my other impeller. I ordered up a hooker 9/15 from JM and it is looking much better! Thing looks sexy! Also I had to bling out my pump a bit and make it match the ski. Why not right? Going to get...

Are they oem plug boots? If so check the little coil deal that connects the plug wire core to the spark plug resistor. I had one of those break on me from vibration. They are super flimsy deals. A set of msd plug boots would help your cause for sure, they use a more sturdy stamped metal connector

Ya so just check for continuity on each half of that wire

Check the red wire in the Ebox that has the fuse. Your fuse could be bad. Or the wire could have a short in it. This happened to me once, I put a voltmeter on everything I could think of just to find out that the red wire had been pinched at one point and a short developed. Easy fix if this is...

Has anyone heard of the Wasserjet? Apparently it’s a rotary motor that fits superjet style setups. I seen them on the web a bit but have never heard of anyone running one in their ski.

Depends on temp and daily barometric pressure as well. Pressure variations with altitude are nonlinear. There are online calculators you can use to estimate it

@JetManiac @tomski thanks for the heads up on that, I had no idea. What is the consequence of using this impeller? Will I damage the stator?

Ok I have actually made progress. Wasn’t able to do much until school ended and parts came in. First of all big thanks to @x2mafia @yurkanip @JetManiac for all the advice and help along the way. I never realized what a stooge I am with skis until I started this build lol. Tore my old motor...
