Everything, minus oil block-off plate.

This guy is amazing. And so is Zack @ PHP. These guys must have been Siamese twins separated at birth. Between the 2 of them I had my complete ignition in less than a week. Speedy had my flywheel on Tues or Wed (I forget) , and I had my lightened flywheel on Fri. Friggin amazing. Anyone looking...

After a phone conversation with Zack about advancing stator 1-2 degrees and the evils that go with that, I wound up buying one of his complete Zeeltronics ignitions. Fast ship (ordered Sat, had Thurs.) Everything needed to install, less oil inject block plate. Where Zack really stepped it up (if...

Well you got MSD and them telling you how you put it in wrong because you have no spark. And when the replacement they send you doesn't work they tell you you put that in wrong. On a 61x build I recently did I wound up using a JSP non adjustable rev limit delete (ebay $67), works great for...

Ignition? Probably gonna have to delete rev limiter.

Post lots of pics !

17/23, 18/24, 19/25, Solas are pretty much your only options for the stock FX pump. Go 17/23 for surf ,stunts, go 19/25 flat out ,creeks , 18/24 for a little of both. The FX pump really benefits from setting the prop back 3-5mm, unfortunately you MUST modify the stator to do that.

What got me thinking/ doubting was the fact my stock FX1 hood had 2 very short completely clear 2.5 tubes for a single carb 61 x. On the Rickter pole you’ve got a much longer run, flexible hoses in a constantly changing state of compression, and one tube ( on my setup) partially restricted by...

Are suggesting intentionally choking hood/ pole breathers as a safety? Interesting. The other thing I’m trying to understand goes back to what Waxhead stated, that the carb jetting wouldn’t be rich or lean with a restricted hull air supply as that the carb functions like a regulator and would...

Stay away from beer goggles.

Oh boy, good question. From what I’m gathering and this is very vague, (assuming you have rickter type pole)add a couple of 2” up to the 900’s, after that from what I’m reading (1000’s and up) you’d probably need like 4 2”. My reasoning on my hood in addition to the fact the holes were there, a...

Make up a manometer, check the ski, start with the smallest hole possible that shows you no movement. You may not need as big as you think. That way as Jr. said you're still protected from water ingestion, the other nightmare.

Nice. Can’t wait for what’s next!

That makes a lot of sense. Diaphragm, self regulating, the carb is also a regulator. Just like a SCUBA regulator that compensates at different depths. Loss of power will come from the fact it has compensated from “ less” air + fuel. Thanks Wax !

Who dis? You know Flash? Yeah I was gonna tackle the drains with a drill press and when I told him what I was up to he was just like” Come on over”. Definitely a good man !

Zip ties are exactly 1” apart. Good eye! It was 99 in that shade and I was getting pretty confused. Friggin melting down over possibly not making breather big enough. The second test calmed me down. But you are right ,2” w.c.

Or are u saying carbs are jetted for strangled inlet? That all tuning was done at that atmosphere. If I calculated right I think 1” wc= less than 1000’ of elevation.

Trying wrap head around this. If carbs are getting “ less” air, wouldn’t that put u in a rich condition?

When I fired motor up the first time I was impressed by intake suction (4mil 898). I began doubting my breather tube calcs so I had to know. The flat part of breather is 5.5"x1.5" and the spigot connection for hose is 2.5" id ( had to really stretch the fernco on there so I know it was sealed)...
