Solas Concord 13/17 or Scat C-75 12/17 w/ TBM

[Mike W]

Alright, I just bought a ski with a Solas Concord but intended to install my Scat 12/17 and TBM pump cone. I don't plan on getting crazy with the engine and intend on just a head and pipe. Everything else will be stock. If the Scat and TBM turns the pump into a mag pump, will I be turning enough HP for the Scat/TBM setup or should I just stick with the Concord? I could really use the money from selling the Scat and TBM in other places which is my only motivation for selling.

The scat trak with the TBM stuffer is the best for white water riding and bigger hp motors, solas works well for flat water riding and mild HP mods. The scat 12/17 pitch/w TBM would be to much prop for your mods, If you bore the nozzle to 84.5-85mm then it would work way better.
For your set-up stick with the solas 13/17...

Thanks for the response. Thats what I will do then.

The TBM and Scat was alot of $$$ so it will be good to sell them and use the money elsewhere.

What is the diameter of a stock reduction nozzle? And how much does boring the nozzle normally cost?

I think my TBM cone and Skat mag prop works great with just a pipe and head .
Awesome hookup in any conditions .I tried a Solas with not so great results .
Stick with the TBM and Skat mag

Can you just turn this into a for sale thread... I am interested in the cone and prop... What do you want for them?

I raced the IJSBA Expert Nationals in 01 and 02 with the 13/17 Solas Concord bent by Impros to 13/16 in a limited SJ and there was never a better prop for a true full blown IJSBA limited SJ with every part allowed. (stock pump in those days) HP in those days was around 105 give or take 3-5% depending on the pipe and RPM setup. We had 82 wisecos, dry pipes, custom exhaust manifolds, 48 Novis, Custom domes 190 Psi, Delta reeds, and custom programmable ignitions.
