hey guys i posted this somewhere else but i wanted to see if there is any different opinions in here... i have a 96 waveraider that i put a new 701 in and tried to sell... well it didnt sell so now i want to have a winter project... i am picking up a 90 sn this weekend and i want to use the parts from the raider to build the SN (which will have nothing but hull, hood, pole, and steering) will i encounter any trouble doing this, ive heard the mid shaft is too big but i have coverd that i got one..... is there anything else???? what about the bearing housing that bolts to the firewall i heard that different... can i just use a 650 bearing housing and put the 701 shaft in i???im open for any advice??

just drop the 701 in . use the stock sn shaft and bearing housing. the 90 superjet uses the small bearing housing. the raider you have uses the larger one. you will need exhaust.the stock exhaust from the 650 will not work. you can run a stock 701 exhaust (just change the manifold from the 650 to a 701 log style) you will have to drill out the manifold so the exhaust bolts will fit as they a larger on the 62t raider. i should of asked 1st what raider do you have 61x or 62t . single or dule carb motor?

its the single carb.... it was kinda rare for them i cant rememeber which one exacly but its the same one that used in the blaster.... thanks for the advice man its much appriciated... i have heard that that particular engine would fit right in.. and the hull im picking up has nothing no bearing houseing or driveshaft so i guess i would have to find one huh?

You'll need a SJ waterbox, exhaust hoses, gastank & straps, longer pos. battery cable for ebox, SJ driveshaft, bearing carrier & shortshaft.
You can frequestly find somebody parting out a pre95 hull and get these stock parts pretty cheap.
