    FX-1 hornedogg's FX-1 build

    Lookin' good dude! Elongate that hole (oval it out) in the rear of the scoop grate and it'll bolt right up. The R&D scoops come with an elongated hole stock and bolt right up. Engine compartment looks super sano, but seal up those holes in tbe bulkhead and seal around all the waterline/bilge...

    FX-1 can someone help me find the fx1 pump converion threads?

    best bet for the $$ is to find good used SXR prop and have it machined for a 6mm setback.

    FX-1 Started my 650 pump swap

    I agree with Kevbo, but the work is to the prop, not the pump setup. You can run any 750/800 prop but you'll need to have it machined for a 6mm setback to work in the 650 pump. The stock 800 props are really hard to beat for the $$ (~100 bux)...fyi

    it has a polished section and you should be able get a good, clean shaft for $30-$50 on average.

    FX-1 Started my 650 pump swap

    it is easiest to cutout the top of tray and lay up additinal glass to the pump shoe area from the inside of the hull. When you do it this way, it is very simple non critical layups that are required (good for 1st time glass workers). Once you've laid up a few layers of glass on the top side of...

    FX-1 Chadetroit's FX1 760 Build

    If it's plastic it's a SJ shoe, so you should be good to go. I didn't see any signs of glass work to the shoe area so it looked like they hadn't tackled that yet.

    You'll need all 3 nozzle parts from an X2. Also, the 750 zxi shaft if different length.....only 900 and 1100 are the same.

    FX-1 can someone help me find the fx1 pump converion threads?

    The X2 nozzle will simply default to full down position if you don't hook up any trim mechanism. I use a simple adjustment knob at the rear of the ski to fine tune the nozzle position. You can also setup a trim lever/cable to have trim on demand....the way I ride I don't need this capability...

    Any Kawasaki 650 engined craft (SX, X2, TS, SC) uses the same pump. The X2 has a trim nozzle that is really nice to have, and the X2 is the only ski that this can be obtained from. The absolute best bang for the buck would be the following: 650 pump (any will do, as long as it's in good...

    Custom/Hybrid Melmack's very unique 300sx build

    Cool project, with a very different direction. I believe the FX pump and 440/550 pump are awful similar though? FX=123mm, 440 = 122mm. If I remember (way back in the day) one of the issues with working the 300 engine was vibration. Most of the JS300 hulls I played with had extensive cracking in...
