Congratulations!  That's a long hard battle to wage and win!  I saw first hand how hard the work is to get through it... that a huge accomplishment to have passed.

My wife's an attorney and I'm a chemist; hence, "Legal Chemistry!"

try a search on youtube.  There is a great Holley video of how everything goes together.  Being a rookie, I thought is was pretty good.

try this:

You'll need to pull the impeller to find out the size.  Maybe there is another way -but I don't think so.  Unless your tach is off or your engine is anemic -I'd think w/an A or AA you should see closer to 4500-5k.  To give you an idea, I have a stock 454 (~400hp) and it will spin an A to 4800-4900 on a tight pump.

Jet Pumps / Leaky Pump pulling skiers
« on: May 08, 2008, 02:26:51 PM »
Does anyone else have this problem?  I realize most the jets here aren't pulling up skiers and wake boarders, I tend to do so most of times I'm out for a couple of runs.  The pump barely trickles in at rest and while underway -just the slightest drip every once in awhile - but when pulling skiers the bilge fills pretty quick... should the thrust bearings be tightened down?  Kind of a catch 22, too tight = problems, too loose = water.

I had the carb shop rebuild a carb probably 15 years ago.  It took them 3 tries to not get it right.  It was so bad I disputed the charge with my cc and they never said a word.  Although the staff has probably changed -I would never go back.

here's an example.  The shifter is dropped all the way down to keep it out of the way.  "Normal" position moves from 10 o'clock to 2 (this gets it completely out of the way for longer cruises)

Check and double check.  Last week I had my trailer worked over.:  new shoes, seals, springs, backing plate, pull and re-lube bearings, basically everything but new drums.  Sunday night leaving San V I burned up both bearings... smoke screen down the 67!  Double check their work after a few miles, you never know what yahoo worked on your pride and joy.

WTF, you guys are giants.  I am the only troll here (I guess Chaz too)????


I'm usually a lurker, but these are bad ass... gotta represent the ghetto style jet boat font.

I'd go for a shirt, maybe a zippered hoodie, and a wife beater for the little lady.


good job.

The No Wake Zone / Anyone know of Boat Storage in SD?
« on: February 24, 2008, 12:19:48 PM »
Looking for a buddy of mine.  He needs a place to store his 22' Scarab (total length 24-25' I would guess).  Looks like the place he was renting from gave him a whopping week notice that they were shutting their facility down  >:(.  If anyone has numbers or rates, I'm sure it would be appreciated.  Prefer central SD/or inland....  thankx

John I just think there are better ways to get that Big boat up and out of the Water without selling you something you don't need Happy to work with you let me know Tom


Hi Tom, what would you recommend for large boats?  I have a 24'+ and would be really interested in what "typically" works for them...

thanks

« on: February 22, 2008, 03:17:23 PM »
Use 2 "C's"  for the stereo, in parallel of course, and 1 "D" for starting only.  The D battery is like my deep cell and chit...  :screwy:

Seriously though, I've used Costco Marine batteries with good luck -never a problem.  I think they are ~$75.  I haven't returned one, but if I recall they have a very generous return policy there.

I'm sure others may have a list pages long, but if it's not broke -don't break it.  Pump fresh oil in and you should be good.

Here's some cut/paste info from a quick search:

14097088 1989-94 502 Open GEN V, 118.0cc, IP 325cc, replacement

14097088...91-up...rect...OPEN...Gen.V 454/502 HO, 118cc chamber

14097088 Iron      Cast   Open 118cc  I: 2.19"  E: 1.88"    325cc    Rect.    Square    use with Gen V big-block engine P/N 24502618-20 "BARE"


I thought these were still used on crate engines?  Hotrod, was the guy you talked to looking to buy heads for that price -that would explain $100.

c'mon, anything to throw on the table.  My boat barge want to get movin' on up the slow river this year.   ;D

These were on my jet boat.  I read somewhere on the 'net that these were used from the mid 90's  and later for Marine 454/502 HO.   They were stock on my boat -never removed or worked on.  I burned up some valves the summer prior and... long story short, I went with a new a$$ebled set and these have been in my garage since (bare).  They have been magnafluxed and from what I was told these can be worked on -I didn't have to time to wait, hence the new set.  I don't have the know-how to es'plain much more other than that these are heavy ass paperweights that bend wood shelves when stored too long. 

If you're local you are more than welcome to take a look.  I'd rather hook someone up on the boards for a reasonable price than make a few bucks on a random shmuck.  Karma.  I'd be down to trade for any jet boat goodies.  A droop/snoot + $?  or anything to make me as cool as you guys...  ::)

how much $$$$?

I honestly don't know what their value is...   I believe the seats can use a little cleanup, and they aren't warped. 

I'd would be open to trade for a droop / droop snoot -I've been wanting to see what, if anything, it would do for my ride.  Open to trade for other jet performance parts????

HotRod... I may be interested in your droop snoot if you don't work out a trade.  I haven't found feedback on these for my application... so it's a shot in the dark. :-\
