    FX-1 Adjustment washers for bed plate?

    They're just regular washers, they don't do anything for alignment. I've heard diff stories of why the notch is there, but none of them involved alignment. A good stainless fender washer should be fine.

    Oceanside Easter Surfride and the psycho harbor seal

    Nice...looked like fun. Go-pro always makes the waves look about 1/2 as big as they really are, so it must have been good. That seal looked pizzed off!

    FX-1 Teaser pic of new project

    Trying to preserve the Frankenstein paint job. It's gonna be a challenge because I have some hull mods in mind too. The paint job is too classic now to ruin and it's actually held up amazingly well for 4 years of abuse.

    FX-1 Teaser pic of new project

    Things seem quiet lately, so I thought I'd throw out a couple teaser pics of my project. For peeps who know my "frankenstein" ski, I'm freshening it up a bit after 4 years of beatin' the crap out of it. I have 2 other running FXs, so I figured what the hell and started cutting. I'll save...

    I take it you have the spacer between the rear of the after-burner pump cone body and the back of the pump? (.175" spacer)

    Yup, it just slides right into the bearing. The shaft more or less floats in the bearing.

    FX-1 Started my pump swap, what a mess

    I hate to break this to you, but you don't want foam in those locations. The pump mounting area should be solid glasss. The foam there will allow water to leak in through the bolt holes and the foam will get waterlogged. It will also crush whe you tighten the pump mounting bolts. You need to...

    Other How do i get these stupid couplers off???

    The Kawi shaft has a small hole through it near the coupler end. You can use a hardened steel pin or phillips screw driver blade through the hole and then put it in the vise. The pin will keep the shaft from rotating in the vise jaws. Heat the coupler up very well and it will come right off...
