Hi all,
I recently bought a bone stock 93 Waveblaster1. It seems to run decent. My 16 year old son has taken it out several times and I have taken it out briefly too.
These few rides have taught us that these are very fun to ride and that it would be a great father-son project to mod this blaster a bit.
The only mod we have made so far is adding MX handlebars and new grips.
We are reaching out to this forum for some advice as we plan the upgrades and shop for parts.
Riding:
We live and ride on a freshwater lake in central Wisconsin (Lake Winnebago, Oshkosh)
We love to jump boat wakes and generally just bomb around trying freestyle (no real skills tho...)
Occasional trips to lake Michigan for playing around on somewhat larger waves
My son and I are both 6'6" tall and weigh about 220 lbs (son is a bit lighter - big surprise).
Goals:
Reliability is pretty high on the list for sure.
Low end punch. Not looking for high speed
Reasonable cost & longevity
Ease of tuning and maintenance
Fun factor!!
Parts we already have in hand ready to install:
FPP B pipe Mod chamber for blaster
ADA Racing girdled head with 35cc domes (185 psi, 91 octane)
Skat Trak 13/18 swirl prop
Rebuilt e-box with MSD Enhancer.
Initial Plan:
Rebuild the single sbn44 carb and rejet for the fpp mod pipe.
Install head, pipe, prop, and MSD e-box
Remove oil injection, install primer
Other skis in our family fleet:
'90 SN Superjet with a 61x 701, single 44 carb, Coffman 'cheater' pipe. We ride it as well but will not be modding it now.
'98 Waveblaster 2. Bone stock. Doesn't want to start when cold so I'll be rebuilding carbs and installing primer.
Main questions we are noodling on:
Is the single 44mm carb OK for the blaster build plan? Remember we are after low end punch and ease of tuning.
What suggested carb jetting for the planned motor stuff?
Should we run AM flame arrestor or stick with stock?
Is the Skat Trak 13/18 swirl gonna be a good fit for us here?
Thanks in advance. We are very excited to get going on this and are looking forward to your advice!!
