    I cleaned the hull up and took a pic of the pump mount in place, also spent some time on the exhaust. My length of pipe is random it will be cut down as well as the expansion chamber. Once i get my tuned length right, I will build another layer over this on and make it a jacketed dry pipe. 5"...

    Built a bilge pump mount after work today no more dip ties. I would take a pic of it in the hull but it's pretty gross right now. It mounts to the output shaft through hull bolts. I also had to use spare screws for the bottom of the bilge, stainless screws are on my list. The screen is a...

    I have already installed a hooker 9-13 prop with a blowson freestyle cone for low end. I think with the combination of that and the 701 it should be much better for surf riding. Oh and I also D-cut my ocean pro extended ride plate and installed a worx scooper pick-up grate. Post a link up to...

    Thanks! Yeah the wetjet pipe is super heavy. I'm thinking about continuing on with the wetjet pipe just for a baseline run then building my own dry pipe. The 2stroke tuners handbook gives all the math and its pretty straight forward. Reaching a true tuned length would probably mean welding it...

    I built an aluminum fuel cell that holds three gallons. The pickup, vent and mounts aren't finished yet.

    So, I worked on the ski a little more this weekend. I made a four chamber water box that has twice the area of a 1.75" exhaust pipe. I think it will flow well and should be decently quiet having four chambers. I also did the math and it should be 8.5lbs lighter than the stock stainless waterbox...

    2016 Spring Carolina Beach Freeride at Freeman Park Discussion Thread!

    I can't wait for the spring free ride, I met a bunch of cool people and had a great time aside from the crazy storm at the end and then the 8 hour drive home in the middle of the night haha.

    650sx complete rebuild, new electrics, won't run

    @cudaben did you ever do a compression test on the engine with a bad head gasket/ warped deck? just wondering if @whennotsailing could do a cold compression test then re-test after the engine is warm and see a difference in compression.

    well I kinda had to back up and punt on the exhaust, it was going to be to low the way I tacked it up and I was worried that it was going to fill up with water. I thought about changing the water box to a superjet and running rear exhaust but it seems like a lot more money and effort to do this...

    Burnt wires

    I have all the grounds and starter wires for sale if you need them I also have lots of other parts. I had some wiring melt one time because one of the two main grounds broke. The wires from the ebox to the stator are solid, there is no way to take them apart other than cutting them. I wouldn't...

    650sx complete rebuild, new electrics, won't run

    If you need a new stator or ebox I have both. I'm not sure that it could even be this but if you have an exhaust leak it will run like crap, I kept blowing off my silicone coupler and it will not run past half throttle. You would be able to notice smoke in the boat when you stop quickly and pull...

    I spent a night with a friend pulling the 650 engine and bolting in the 701. Most of my time was spent modifying the wetjet westcost pipe to work with my hull. I ended up running out of argon so, I will have to finish the welding after I get my bottle filled. The pipe had two v-clamps but the...
