FTW G's kawi x2 flatdeck 1100 build/conversion

Hello xh20 I am LIL G from manteca ca I am currently building a flatdecked x2 powered by a Kawasaki 1100 from a 97 stx so heres a recap on my progress and the help I need down below including pics of my 1100 build

So I bought a 97 stx yesterday fully running 100 percent no issues for 300 bucks with trailer best deal I ever found in my area I was so stoked I took it home and immediatly pulled the motor and ebox out wiring

I already have an x2 I flatdecked 9 months ago that was powered by a 750 it was nowhere near enough power for me milled head exhuast all the goodies so now I'm dropping in the 1100 into my x2 hull

So I pulled motor from 1100 and started installing it in my x2 heres what I had to do to make it fit without cutting hull fiberglass for exhuast I took off the exhuast chamber off 1100 removed carbs I removed the 1100 bedplate since it was too big and long I had to use a 650 bedplate set furthest back and the 650 rubber grommet to mate the engine coupler to the stock x2 driveshaft i did not not cut or nothing stock shaft so now I have the motor aligned and in the x2 hull ready to bolt down the 4 main bed bolts I put amexhuast chamber back on so I can mock up the exhuast system since its supposed to be rear I'm going to just route straight to my westcoast x2 waterbox I have idk if it will work but yea installed a 550 gas tank

I need help figuring out my electrical for the 1100 can I use a 650 or 750 ebox or do I have to use the 1100 ebox what can I remove from 1100 ebox that I wont use at all in swap

I have a hull as well that im going to drop a 1100 in im curious on how how made your exhaust fit with no mods? can you explain how you did this?

So I had a 1987 ford ranger 4 cylinder intake manifold tube fits perfct also has the perfect bend for the 90 I installed motor then stock exhuast used 1987 ranger hose off the exhuast chamber I had an aluminum 90 elbow from old water boxes I used 1 of those and last piece is a 550 bent hose and i didnt cut a mother licoriceing hose it so happen to line right the licorice up perfect

but what about the pump.....
Can you help me with the pump I have no knowledge of the pump at all all I'm doing is upgrading cooling I will be running big 3/8s stainless pipe thru my hull and be drilling and tapping my pump and ordering a 13/20 big hub hooker swirl and adding a freestyle cone I honestly wanna do a pump swap

shrug...can you even do a pump swap on x2? imo, i would swap to 750/800 pump and get a good prop for top end, im guessing you wana go fast right?
550/750 pump swaps make all the difference.... your teeny pump isnt enough for 1100 even with a prop in it. ..maybe I'm wrong??wouldnt waste money on a cone either...your going for speed, not doing flips with this thing....also if you can squueze in a water box, or everyone will hate you :)
