Checked it at 5:00PM , microballoons was fully set but still slightly tacky , cabosil was mostly set up and still tacky , with slightly just warmer temps and lower humidity I can easily see applying this and sanding it in the same day.

Test #3 , 70 degrees 48% humidity , I mixed the epoxy with cabosil and pulled it in some areas where I had filled in the footholds , cabosil is much denser than microballons filler and usually kicks the epoxy off much faster pulled at 1:30 PM , parked in partial sun. At 1:00 PM I checked the...

Test #2 , 72 degrees 59% humidity , parked in the full sun this time , I would expect to see some different results, I pulled the same two spots with microballoons again because they were low where I removed the vents in top of the hood , the hood has a crown in it on those parts and it make...

Kevbo thinks everyone should be bending their own impellers so keep that in mind. I would bend one in a heartbeat but there is a learning curve there , I made my own impeller bending tools , going at it without a pitch gauge and an adjustable wrench is not a great idea for most people on here .

Mostly issues with it curing in a timely fashion and a few repairs I made on the Superjet a while back were not adhered properly , I have used it before with no issues, maybe this was a bad batch, there is no way to know for sure , I do know I don't like waiting days for epoxy to kick , the...

I looked up the weight on that ORCA it's 738.5 lbs , in comparison a Seadoo GTX 170HP is 849 lbs so it does have a weight advantage.

I checked it at 6:00 this morning and it passed the fingernail test which literally is can you leave an impression it it with your fingernail , it still has some tack to it, it was 55 degrees here last night and 91% humidity so again these are not optimal conditions for epoxy to cure. I will...

Ten things I trust more than the FBI right now. 1. A fart after taco Tuesday, and four margaritas 2. Sharing needles with Magic Johnson. 3. A mixed drink poured by Bill Cosby 4. A ride home from Ted Kennedy 5. Gas station sushi 6.Russia 7.Building a house inside a Hawaian volcanoe. 8. An email...

Not sure I totally agree with this but yeah you have some points , my old lady goes to the gym every day , I don't but when she signed back up a month ago she signed me up, right now I am just doing upper body stuff and playing 30 minutes of basketball till I get my hip replacement , after...

The dude has enough to sort out already without going to the hassle of converting differently backspaced impellers with questionable fitting splines , but hey I have never done any kind of crazy conversion skis myself , so you should probably listen to these guys who had a friends uncles...

It's been 3.5 hrs and it's pretty well set up, at least to the point where it is firm , it is not fully cured by any means but at 70 degrees and with zero sun exposure I really didn't expect it to be, it should be cured tomorrow morning and then we see how it sands out , so far I am impressed.

How do you figure , there are way more Seadoo models that used 140mm pumps, everything from a SP with a 580 and 60HP to a 1997XP with a 787 and 110hp , big hub and small hub to boot, I posted the impeller chart lots of options there . Seadoo impellers start at straight pitch 16.5 to...

First pic Seadoo driveshaft splines notice the crown on the spline, it's bigger in the middle than on the ends .that pic is of a Spark driveshaft but they are all made the same. Second pic Kawi impeller tool, straight splines just like on their driveshafts, so of course that impeller tool or...

kevbo with all due respect stick to what you know. Seadoo impellers will fit on Kawi shaft , sloppily but yes they will fit, the reverse is not usually true , yes it is possible you might find an old impeller with sloppy worn splines that will fit on a Kawi shaft but it's not that likely...

Like I keep saying but no one is listening, those Kawi impellers will not just slide onto a Seadoo driveshaft, yes I fully realize they use the same impeller tool , but the splines are slightly different since Seadoos are crown splined and Kawis have straight splines , you also need to realize...

Not sure what the HP on that Seadoo is but it left that ORCA like it had an anchor tied to it.

I wonder what would happen if you ran the big hub RFI impeller in the small hub housing, my understanding is that's what the Hooker impellers are and I know they run them in X2 small hub pumps. I have never tried it on a Seadoo pump. That RFI 140mm impeller is a 12/25 , it might be worth a...

Pics or it didn't happen.

Yep what it really is is yet another way to make rich people richer and poor people poorer all while supporting Chinas economy and doing absolutely nothing to help the environment. BTW those look like Seadoo jet pumps and ride plate -radiators..
