Questions about Blaster FP Limited Chamber

I was riding my blaster in some local surf this weekend (for the first time) and noticed a problem with my FP Limited Chamber ... there are no mounts mounting the chamber to ANYTHING in my hull besides the couplers at both ends of the expansion chamber.

i see there are two tabs for mounts on the expansion chamber. one that looks like it should mount to the cylinder, another that looks like it should mount up on the waterbox.

does anyone have this pipe on their blaster with pics i could take a look at?

Gracias..


it mounts to the fuel tank on the front and the other one I can't remember...

you have an early chamber.the newer ones dont have the cylinder mount just the one on the tank.the one on the cylinder always breaks.the front lord mount goes through the gas tank mount.ill try to put up a pic this afternoon

Mine just has a tab at the gas tank. I don't even use it anymore. the alignment was all wrong and kept pulling the chamber out of the coupler so I left it unbolted. I need to put some turf on the hull where the U shaped tube is since its rubbing on the hull now.

thats the problem i'm having now, mine comes out of the coupler after a couple of nice landings in the surf.. it came out twice saturday.. plus i can hear it just rattling around in the hull when i'm idling.. just doesnt seem right.

butti, that makes TOTAL sense about the cylinder mount tab. mine IS broken. i was just gonna weld it at home with my arc welder.. but i think i'll just get a lord mount and bolt up the front mount only.

perhaps the key is just to have a long enough coupler between the head pipe and expansion chamber so whatever bends/angles it makes when its bolted down up front doesnt make the chamber pop out of the coupler?
Just make sure to get the tab in the right spot. mine wouldn't let the chaimber and head pipe touch.
