I'd be a little weary of a good deal on a Lenzi hull... remember what happened to Slymo. The XFT stuff is looking pretty good these days. Jeff is no longer making X-Jets, so I won't even go there.

I don't think you need longer rods unless you go with an 8mm stroker. I have a 6mm stroker and the piston skirts nearly contact the crank. Almost every 5mm and 6mm stroker that I've heard of used stock length rods.

The longer rod (same stroke) will have longer dwell time at top dead center and bottom dead center. I don't know if that's good or bad, but they say that with longer rods you get a wider powerband and more RPM's. Think Kawasaki 750 vs. Yamaha 701.

Like Wildman said, some use recesses cut into the domes, some use spacer plates under the cylinder, and some use spacers on top. For example, this one uses a spacer plate on top of the cylinder...

Here's one I am selling that is setup specifically for pump gas: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=4639262793&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT

They have a lot of really nice features that the Blaster doesn't have (mirrors and gages among other little touches like trim tabs). I had one once and didn't ride it much, but I would much rather have a blaster (a lot lighter, more mods available, a ton of more parts available in genera, and...

The dry pipe and a double wall chamber (water goes inside of it). The wet pipe has a single wall. I don't think you can tell just by looking at one, they look the same to me.

Marc posted prices on the other board, right now it's $11,500 USD for the flatwater hull setup and about $12,00 for the "freeride" edition. These prices appear to be sale prices and include everyting (the hood, nose cover, handpole, tubbies, rideplate). I don't know if that's the price from...

My bad, I'm on crack, these pipes tend to crack (not crank).

They were very expensive new, but they are probably the most crank-prone pipe out there.

He's using straps I think (read the first post).

I can't believe people are still asking this question :bigeyes:

Lol :banghead:

Did you retune your carbs after putting them in?

I have no idea how the air flows around down there, but air can't flow through a corner, so you should be able to take out the dead space and not notice a loss in flow. I don't know, I'm putting an engine together right now w/o the fingers filled so I'll see how it goes.

We'll have to have a freestylefest buildoff, I'm in the same "boat" as you :banghead:

For finger filling, I don't really think it increases the velocity any, since the air doesn't flow under the reeds (air flows over the bottom reeds, right?)

That wouldn't be the same now, would it :wink:

That looks like a very sweet deal to me.

Killer work! It looks like one of a kind... let us know how it rides (is it LOUD?)
