We both know it's the foam, Matt. All thousand pounds of it.

Well, that and I don't want to waste Chuckie's valuable time. The way I see it, after the two little Flakes go to bed, you become the resource of choice for mechanics who don't really have to accept full responsibility for their work since they're doing it for free.

I'm going to send the pics to Dave and see what he thinks.

I pulled the prop and it's a friggin rock tumbler.

I can probably dremel a lot of stuff out.

He stated that the ski used to really take off but has since slowed considerably. I started by removing the rideplate and pump. The ski's been sitting for three years winterized so god knows how the carb looks inside. I'll need to get a rebuild kit from John Zigler soon.

In this case, you might be right. What carb is in this thing? 44?

So I was just wondering how does one decide whether to go to a 5mm stroker like Gil or longer . . . say an 8mm stroker? Are there advantages to the 5mm? Does the 8mm not show enough of an improvement over the 5 to justify the drop in reliability (if there is one)? What's the story?

The lightweight flywheels make a big difference. DJKorn's got a wet-pipe and a lightweight flywheel and his ski jumps out of the water. I hear through the grapevine that you can remove the magnets and inner ring from an oem flywheel and it makes a huge difference. It is, of course, a total...
