    SXR Supejet pole on sxr!!!! Pictures anyone?

    i put the X Metal pole on my sxr and im really happy with it. Im pretty sure there are pics of it on my build thread but that was some time ago. I put the Xmetal turn plate on with the pole. I used the SXR bolt and put the SXR washers inside the bracket to take up the slack, it fit really well

    SXR How to torque down SXR cyllinder

    if you have the correct tool & formula then that would be the best way to go. We were trained that it is acceptable to use the 90 deg offset method when i was in school as it does not change the length of the torque action enough to make a difference. if the adator is more than 2 inches to...

    300/440/550 newby 87 JS-550 owner

    if you still need it, i probably have a post 87 exhaust you can have if you want to pay for the shipping. BE CAREFULL adjusting the carb "to spec" as this is not a spec boat anymore. if you lean the engine out to much (by turning the screws in) and it is not jetted properly it will hurt the...

    SXR How to torque down SXR cyllinder

    if you install the wrench adaptor or crows foot adaptor at 90 degrees on the torque wrench, the difference in torque is minimal. that way you are not extending the leverage point but offsetting it to the side

    Overheat sensor on wet pipe??

    i believe its eliminated with After market pipes. If you ride in the salt the OH sensor terminals should be tucked back into the box or well insulated against water so they don't short
