Alright guys, i am new to the waveblaster and i need some help. I picked up a 93 single carb a few months back with the intent of running it in the sport spec class next year. The ski is in good condition but needs some tlc. It is mostly stock but, does have a k&n filter kit, coffmans pipe and a intake grate(not sure what brand)
My plans are to add a head, rideplate and really go through the entire ski and clean/bring it back to life. So, this weekend i pulled the motor to start the tear down process and i have some questions.
1) The motor had 149 and 148 compression and seems to be in great shape. I pulled it all apart to inspect and it looks like it had never been apart. Again, it does need a good cleaning but, it looks like it will be a strong motor. My questions is should i do a rebuild? If so, a top end kit? or the entire motor? I already have a complete gasket kit that i going install very soon. Let me know your idaes on the rebuild!?!?
2) Should i stick with the coffmans pipe? Its a little rough but, works well. Aslo, the mounting bracket that bolts to the head is broken. Should i go for a factory pipe?
3) Lastly, the rideplate.. I am looking at a groovy and a protec but read many reviews for both. What would you recommend?
Again guys, feel free to give some input!! waht would you do if you were in this situatuion?
