Hot Products sells them. So they are not as hard to come by as other Japanese parts.

New tie drivshaft being made and the motor is going back 1/2 inch. Billit bedplats as well
wich will aid in the movment back. As far as that..this ski is dialed ready for a full season of riding 2010 here i come. Will be posting up pics of the new shaft, and bed plates and go threw the minor adj.

Are you running the same pipe?, I noticed a carbon chamber in roo's Pics

That is some of the best red neck engineering I have EVER seen, I can't stop laughing.

Ya, its the same pipe. I did the carbon sock rap to protect it due to the tight fit and to make sure no welds were going to brake loose, since there were so many. That pipe is half the weight as the powerfactor. I was surprised how much heavier they were...prob because there waterjacket runs threw the complete pipe. Alls i know is mine stayed hand touch warm the whole time..im very happy the way it all turned out, ran into no problems and all who rode the ski were very impressed with the hull and the power. I do plan on making full carbon versions of this pipe, Paul at lehrperformance.com really pulled threw for me on this motor setup and msd tuning. Eric did a great job on a well balanced 55lbs hull/hood cant complain. Wow cant believe its done!! There will be alot of vid time when spring gets here.

From an expert engineer none the less!

I really like how he used the fittings on it. I just wish Blitz made like a 4 gallon tank that was the same shape. I would rok that same setup in a heart beat. Just makes sense to me to use a gas an for a gas tank. Kind of like how I want to have a ski painted to look like an old wooden boat.

I made the carbon defuser, wat a beech to make...

 

[HBCwatercraft]

made the carbon stand for the hks turbo timer, aswell as the carbon guage stand.

 

[RiverRat]

any vids of the ski running?

 

[HBCwatercraft]

,

 

[HBCwatercraft]

yes, there not loaded on the computer yet.

 

[HBCwatercraft]

the bedplates will be done by next week..i just stuck with the same drivshaft 4 now and had it shortened 1/2 inch. We will see how that works.

[HBCwatercraft]

Isnt the most prettiest carbon jobs iv done..but hay was good work being done on a road trip across the country in a van. The pipe is alum wrapped with carbon...wanted to take no chances with a weld splitting..i would of been screwed all that way from home with know welder. Billet bedplates are done just need to get them picked up.

 

[HBCwatercraft]

when i start making these pipes they will prob be full carbon.
