Seadoo 800 in a SJ

[djkorn1]

Has anyone tried this one? These are fast ass motors. What is the possiblility of squeezin one in a Roundnose hull?:bad3:

I heard of a guy here in colorado that was building exacly that... But I dunno if he got it going yet.

There was a guy in Michigan that put one in a carbon SXi Pro hull years ago, so yes it's doable. Heck, people put GP1200 engines, Polaris engines, etc in them so it's just a matter of fabbing up a bedplate or glassing in new mounts.

Saw a pic of one in a 300sx hull. I showed Jerry and we both gave it the WTF mark of approval

if I was going to do anything like this I'd go for the polaris motor first......dont forget seepoos have those silly side draft carbs....

I believe it is Rick Kantolas. There is a pic of it floating around here somewhere. Or over on pwctoday.

And a rotary valve.

 

[SUPERJET-113]

and a counter balancer shaft, and RAVE valves ... and about 20 other more moving parts than a YAM engine. I dont think it would be worth it unless you had a lot of time on your hands. It would be very high maintainence in SJ. Would still be cool though. 110 hp stock.. bump the compression, and you got a killer machine. My 96 XP 800 has been a good reliable machine for 5 years now, but that is basically after i rebuilt everything.. inclunding lots of the electronics.

Yep, thats who I was referring to... But I never saw it or heard if it actually came to be??? Find that pic!

 

[djkorn1]

I know they put out good horsepower and are the best, most reliable motor the Sea-poo people ever put out. I wonder if that stock Sea-Doo exhaust will fit in there...:cool2:

I found the pictures but dont know how to post a link to them. Some one want to tell me how?

Go to the Gallery, Create an Album for the pics to go into, Upload your pics, then follow the instructions to put them in the album you created, then give us a link.

That things is insane! It's such a tiny hull.

There's was a guy in South America I think it was, who puta 951 in a Superjet hull. I saved the picture... a 951 would kill an 800 :hail:

 

[Matt_E]

Indeed. I can't imagine something that heavy in a Superjet though.

 

[Keith]

The pictures are in the album now.

That's the 951...

 

[djkorn1]

cool! Good job Keith!

 

[djkorn1]

What did he do... cut a hole in his hood for the pipe?

 

[sjaddicted]

I bet that thing rips, but holy hell is that pipe huge.

Stop giving me ideas lol
