Pete,

I believe Speed Magic has one of those oversized Kawasaki 750/800 cylinders on their website. I have a pic somewhere of Josh Lustic's 750 SXi Pro from like 4 years ago when he had one.

Also West Coast used to have a pimp new cylinder but I never saw one in person. I may have a pic of it too. I meat to save everything from their website years ago before it shut own... too late now....

PS, what do you think of the Maeksawa Engineering regular X2 hull? I am debating on getting one once I am out of college and making the big bucks. I hope to buy an 800 SXR as well just for the pump, electircs, and engine.

I can get Josh Lustic's number from a friend, I should give him a call and see what he has for Kawi motor advice.

I have no idea how good those hulls are but a stock X2 hull weighs around 130 or 140 lbs stripped. If they are a lot lighter than that they would be sweet. I wiant to get a lightweight X2 hull in the next year or so with a big bore motor for it. Like 900- 1000cc's in a 75 pound hull. I don't know if your really need to part out an SXR that bad. I have all 650 kawi running gear and electrics on the big bore motor and they seem fine. I would like to see about making a Magnum pump out of a 650 housing though..

Pete,

Check here for a 750 pump install/swap I was tinkering around with.

Also that SE Engine is here:

http://speedmagic.co.jp/parts/800SXR_FS/800sxr_FS.html


So what types of electrics are you running? I want to do an 800 SXR engine swap. I want to use the 800 electrics and an 800 pump. A magnum pump is really my fist choice along with total loss but you know how the money situation goes....


I figure once I get out of school I should be able to get one... hopefully....

I wat all the goodies like the Maeksawa Hull, Trim System, carbon fiber this, that....



What we need is a badd ass stroker engine like Pancake's ADA engine!!

Pete,

I need sme info from you. I am not sure if you saw my foot srap thread on pwctoday and x-h2o but I need to buy some epoxy. What type of epoxy do I need? The guys from Blowsion weren't that helpful when I called them. Also if you know somewhere to buy it let me know. They did say that if the hull is SMC I will need an SMC compound. I could be killing the tricks a lot better with some foot straps!!! Well subs maybe. haha

What motor are you running?
Click to expand...

96 SXI cylinder, bigbore sleeves, 84 mm pistons 820 cc
stock stroke
freestyle ported
165# compression witht he domes in it now
single 46 mikuni
Vforce II reeds
Factory pipe wet pipe with Yamaha superjet limited chamber

Overall I am really happy with it. I just always want more.

I am thinking about selling my superjet and just building another of my old X2 hulls for flatwater with a super serious race gas motor and a lightened hull. Then use the 820 I have now in a sturdier hull for surf.

I am going to upgrade to this 49 Full Spectrum/Blowsion/Joe Kenny carb this week.

I am not sure about the transfers but the exhaust port is stock location. I have a new engine builder that is more high teck than the last one that worked for me. My buddy is getting an 840 small pin SX motor done with him right now and if it is better than mine I might just do an SX big bore cylinder this season.

I am going to look at the transfers next time I get the motor apart and compare it to a stock ZXI motor I have.

You want the timing of the Exh/Trans to be in the 86/118 range.
If you lift the SXR cylinder 1,3mm with a thicker base gasket(1,8mm), you will have timing of 85/118, which gives bottom-mid power.
The rest of the porting should be done for peak hp rpm's @ 6500rpm.

You would a lot more power if you could fit something like a 'Blaster Mod' chamber. The 'big dent' in the superjet chamber's tailcone really kills the power.

Yeah I would like to know what pipes will work on an X2. I am mainly meaning the FPP's. They all use the same headpipe. Say try a FPP Kaw 750 SX Limited, 750 Superstock, SJ Mod/Limited, Yamaha Blaster, Wave Raider, FX1, ect.....

I know SE and some of the other Japanese companies have a few pipes for the 650, 750, and 800's. They all mostly look like aftermarket Kaw 650 pipes.

Beats me... But I did ride a Kaw 750 SXi Pro with a FPP Dry Pipe on it and it was a rocket compared to my 650 SX 650 X2, and my friend's 750 SX.

Water Injection is your friend! I am debating on trying to add some water injection to a modified stock stock pipe I have.

Pete, I will get at you in a few days. This is finals week of summer school and I am slammed with work.

A properly ported cylinder will not need water injection, you won't be able to keep the ski in the water as the motor accelerates so fast.

Pete and some others were using the Yamaha SJ pipe on their X2's. I thought since they both had the 3 bolt headpipe pattern they would just bolt up.


Pete will have to fill us in on what he did. What I mean is what head pipe and what chamber he used.


I forsee the bigger pipes being a problem fittign inside the hull. The X2 hull gets kind of narrow by the pipe. One of the Blaster pipe probably wouldn't fit. As for clearing the gas tank I am not too worried as you can have a custom aluminum one welded up or rig up a 550 tank. DBR
