Carefull, that's a secret political "code word" for flying to Brazil to see your girlfriend.



Any pics of how this build is going?

i havn't been able to work on it much with school and cold weather. tomorrow is the final day of final exams so i will have a couple weeks to wrench on it. i can't wait to cut this hull up! :haha:

I practiced some of my fiberglassing skills in the basement... thats not a good idea. :bad3:waiting for warmer weather or a way to heat a double wide trailor....

Ha! its a POS now but she has a lot of potential. shes gonna go places...

 

[Maxumflux]

what do you guys think about rear exhaust? yay or nay?

 

[Sanoman]

Go with the rear exhaust.X2's are loud with any kind of aftermarket exhaust.The sound seems to resonate back at you,because it's placement right at the front.Besides it will be a good experiance.

thanks man. i pulled the engine and everything out yesturday. i want to get some practice with the glass befor i cut up my SJ, This will be an easy place to hide any boo boos to. I have a couple feet of alluminum pipe hopefully it will give it a more throaty sound..:bananalama::bananalama::bananalama:

let the itch begin!

 

[Maxumflux]

time for some glassing.

 

[Sanoman]

Where did you get your aluminum pipe?

 

[Maxumflux]

my trampoline... shhhh... no one needs to know.

 

[Maxumflux]

recieved a bendex in the mail today from CHAD. as soon as a warm enough day comes around i can start glassing. this whole cold thing really sucks.

Thanks Chad!

only one thing i don't have to get this boat on the water and that is a pump housing...

 

[Maxumflux]

i reinforced the hood last weekend from the inside and poured foam into the air intakes this week end. i intend to cut off the excess foam and put one layer of 8 oz epoxy over the top. starting to come together. still need a pump housing.

trampolines are usually galvanized steel bro.

trampolines are usually galvanized steel bro.

yeah i am not gonna be using that any way. i figured it would be easiest to drill out the rivets of the front exhaust outlet and move it to the rear right-hand corner and rivet it back in there, then run PVC back and foam it all in.:fingersx:

 

[madscientist]

use the abs black pvc

[Maxumflux]

more pics-- the grey tube is conduit rated to 90*Celcius. i figured this would be more than enough.

 

[Maxumflux]

i poured foam today and sanded every thing down. I also have a new layer of glass on the hood. The MadscientistJR May be coming over tomorrow to help with some glassing.. Just thought i would post every one up to date who is following this thread. I havn't forgotten about the build, School has been a real bitich lately and so has the weather! I am working every weekend little by little! Oh and any one who has a 650 pump or any thing After market for an x-2 that they no longer want i'll pay shipping and send you 440/550/650 engine mounts!
Updated pics will come tomorrow evening.
