    NW FX1 Build w/TOM 21 144 pump tunnel swap.

    I ended up getting some Sharkthane pour foam from blowsion. I probably would have gone with US composites, but blowsion is close , and there was an immediate need for it. Poured and worked like it was supposed to. Pretty happy with the finished product, and shaping for me was probably the...

    Well. I have a ton of experience with foam. I got a batch of TotalBoat two part foam from Amazon. It didn’t work like it was supposed, I followed instructions to the T. But it was a bad batch. Temp is supposed to get up to 130 and this stuff was getting as high as 210 ish, so it was...

    B-pipe manifolds for sale

    Hey bro, been following this a bit. This pipe is an Fx-1 chamber. The same chamber that was discontinued by FP. For those running stock Fx1 tanks. This definitely fits better. I believe the mod you have to dent. For those running an sj tank. They will also fit. But so will mod as you...

    Thanks! I was going to use ufo mounts. But I only have the nut style. Not the kind you and Don have. I think I may order those just so I have them for future builds!

    NW FX1 Build w/TOM 21 144 pump tunnel swap.

    I feel like I finally accomplished something this weekend! 5200 is a mess to work with! But my lines are installed, as well as my intake grate hull inserts! Some of you guys make spreading the 5200 look easy! I got the fast cure 5200. So I’ll probably start foaming this week after work...

    So after scratching my head a bunch. I reached out to my local riding friend. Who has 2 2019 sj’s. One is stock an the other is decked out. He was kind enough to remove his intake grate for me to use. Just as I suspected it sits perfect. I used it for my template to mark my holes as well...

    I also don’t understand how it could be the tunnel. Everything lines up perfectly. What kind of shoe are you using? I’m using a worx which was pre-tapped. I had to hunt for mine due to the quality issues they were having. Ordered two. One from Australia the other from the UK. Perhaps the...

    Just created an account and ordered one from their website. However my order history say no orders so that’s weird. Can’t go wrong for 30$ Only comes in pink too. Might go with you color scheme @brapperdoodle

    The grate seems to lay there perfect and flat on the shoe and hull. But starts to pivot when on the last couple “torquing” turns. However manual says you only need 3.6 ftlbs for the intake grate. If it lays flush should be fine and not too much tension?

    It looks like I’m running into the same issue Sanoman did on his purple madness build. When I tighten the pump shoe intake bolts down the front of my intake grate raises. I don’t think it has anything to do with my tunnel or install. I checked my Stock tunnel, shoe and Jd intake grate. And...

    NW FX1 Build w/TOM 21 144 pump tunnel swap.

    Ok getting ready to install my pump shoe. Did some mock up to see how my pump seal squish worked out. Looks great. Went to line up my intake grate so I can drill the front tunnel bolt mount holes out. Everything looks good intake grate mounts flush with hull and pump shoe. Also when running...

    This may give better reference now that I have my temporary paint. Below is a picture of my jet dynamics intake grate on my stock tunnel. Also sits below the ski but doesn’t have that strong of a ridge line. Has an aggressive scoop area by the ride plate. The one for my pump swap is r&d...

    Thanks for the input. Do you have have a grate that you would recommend? Thanks man! I tried really hard on this thing! But I definitely feel like I got the hang of it now. Had quite a bit of guidance which really helped!

    Trying to come up with a game plan for the rest of my build. I have all of my lines prepared, and am going to 5200 in. My exhaust is aluminum (6061) and I have aluminum l cooling lines (also 6061). I suppose I could order steel cooling lines and have them by the time I need them. But I...

    I also know a lot of you use 5200 for your lines. What does Yamaha use from factory? Is 5200 easy enough to remove in the future?
