you tube video. It looks like a carbon xft hull. the motor is rippin anyone know whats in there? YouTube - spencer wells flat water jet ski backflip

nice project.

YouTube - octane testing 2 heres the video i got the pics from earlier. Skywalker beating up my ski.

wow

wow, you think that lamey powered octane is capable of flatwater backflips? Its got to be a killer ski, i cant wait to ride it, we are coming back the week of the 22nd

my new pipe will clear the oem sj tank, a much needed option. I'm only about 20-25 min on a kart tank. I'll be able to do this because my octane hull is wider at the bond line. since you are running a conversion you might be able to run your tank or chamber in a higher position

you're screwed

a friend of mine made his own manifold and used a seadoo aftermarket pipe chamber. he told me it hit just as hard as his speedwerx twin pipe, top rpm was a little less (but who cares)

wd conversion puts the motor upright and uses the factory motor mount location of a 701. It uses the same couplers you are running now. His pipe will fit that or if you do it the way i did it the pipe will also fit. Look at squids 1200 build it shows the 1200 which has the same 66e cases and...

I love having an octane forum also. Thanks, Tom

you can get a stock pump to hook up with a 80mm 66e, you will need around a 15/20 or 16/21 prop, you start adding mods like big bore, high compression,etc. you'll need a mag or else you have to start custom bending props to get the high pitches you'd need to run. Derick from the ski clinic...

i'll weigh one today, i remember it was 15lb heavier than a lamey motor, I have a short block sitting out i can weigh

most of the water ingestion problem stemmed from the leaky gasket from the manifold to the head pipe. It would shoot a stream of water into factory airbox. In addition alot of the xp's had water injection problems from water entry around the front storage tray and intake tube. I don't think...

get a new gasket before you take the old one apart. The head is very easy to remove, do you have a oem head or aftermarket head?

if they are sputtering under power you probably have a leaky oring or head gaskets, compression is getting in to the cooling jackets

i'm healed. Game on

it wont bend again unless more water enters. I wouldn't do it on a high dollar stroker motor, aftermarket cylinder, etc. but if funds are limited and you want to get back on the water, i wouldn't hesitate. Say it does bend again , it doesnt really hurt anything internally, not a big risk...

wow, nice looking ski.

hammer it straight, or you can have a machine shop press it straight, bolt it up in your cases /cylinders and check with a dial indicator

Craig,getting any surf riding in yet? its time for those skis to taste saltwater. trying to get everything just right for january
