1100 wave raider engine in a sj

[steve-uk]

i was just trolling through the net and looking at the old waveraiders with 1100 motors... would that fit into a SJ?

Ive never seen the 1100 motor so could be huge for all i know

couldnt find any other threads on it

:beerchug:

may have answered my own question with a google search.. looks like a triple,, and huge!

I think it is a good idea if your main goal is to go fast on low octane fuel. For freestyle it will need a lot of custom made parts and a total loss to get acceptable weight/performance.

a guy i used to ride with had a wave raider and it haulled a$$... but yeah weight wise was a monster

its doable
i mocked up a 1200 npv in a old sn i had
everything sat in real nice but the 2 probs i had and didnt wanna deal with were:
fuel tank
and 1200 exhaust faces rearward so would have to be no waterbox -loud
so after much thought i scrapped the idea
i didnt think the power- wieght factor was good enough
1200 motor is heavy

there is a video on youtube with on and it does not seem like it is that fast. to me it seems like it would just be heavy

YouTube - Superjet 1200

remember that time..... when i went straight... really fast.... and then.. remember this .. i turned.... it was awesome
