Yeah, I just expected the under neath to show some sign of damage. I cleaned the piston up with some motor decarb spray and the dent is just where the aluminum has been eaten away.

B8ES on the plugs. Just yanked the jugs off. A very light scoring in that cylinder hole. A light honing should fix. The rods seem to be good. The lower end is good and clean. Oddly enough there is not any distortion on the bottomside of that piston. I'd expect there to be a bulge or...

I bought the ski like this. I stripped the entire ski but left the crankcase, cylinders, head and manifolds in place in the hull. I had it painted and decided to take the head( a twist billet head BTW) off and look at the cylinders. This is what I found. The front cylinder is very clean, very...

Would running too low of an octane cause this?

I'm not planning on running it that way. I hope new pistons/rings/top end bearings will suffice.

Just took the head off a new to me waveblaster that I just got back from painting. Anyhow the rear piston looks like this. Anybody have any ideas on what causes this type of damage?

How do I get the Vortex Flame arrestor bases off the top of my carbs? I picked up a 94 blaster with the following, MSD digital TL ignition, B-pipe, twist billet head, 62T cases, and dual taperbored mikunis. Oh, and a crapload of stickers covering the cracks up. The F.A. bases seem glued onto...

Gorilla Glue will fix your woes. 4 seasons on mine and they have yet to move.

I just picked up a decent blaster with mod pipe, MSD TL, 62T ported motor, high comp head and usual driveline mods for 1000.00. I'd say 4-600.00 is reasonable to expect.

What's wrong with a frankenstein motor? They have there place. I put a 61Xbottom with a 62T top into a vxr and it rocks! :biggrin: FS Clean 1994 VXRPro with the legendary Frankenstein motor.

I use the Klean-Strip Premium Stripper from home depot and it works great.

Bump. Last day for comments. Follow the link below. http://www.awahq.org/p/grassroots-activism.php

Don't use regular krylon. Get a engine paint or brake caliper paint. The finish will hold up alot better and it only costs a couple dollars more.

I've done 62 on my freshly waxed honda. I also got hit in the face one time at about 60 by a large moth/butterfly type insect and it hurt pretty good. At 80+ I could see a sparrow or something knocking you off the ski.

I've had one on my blaster for 3 years. I'll wind up replacing it this winter because it has become impregnated with salt. It still does a great job at keeping water out.

Only Insurance I have is liabilty through my homeowners. Theft or loss is out of my pocket. Every place I checked would not insure due to modifications or due to lack of previous coverage.

Me too! Three years on mine.

I'm heading out tommorow to Atlantic Beach. Hopefully Saturday will have some decent surf.
