If you get a JC your going backwards...the JC doesnt have a split bowl, which the JB should since it is an updated casting of the JG pump which does have a split bowl...someone please chime in if im telling false info here...the split bowl is nice because you can add a wedge or a droop snoot and get some change in the ride and potentially more MPH...Some say the JC flows more but you wont be able to tell.
IMHO your best bet is to buy the rebuild kit from CPP and get it done...start a thread and you can even call people like Tom at JBP who is great and will usually help you threw any issue you have while doing something like this...i say to rebuild it because if you get this new pump and he didnt take care of it, than its garbage and you wont get top performance out of it anyway and you wont be happy yet...so do yourself a favor and rebuild the pump you have and get the best pump you can for the money...do it yourself on a weekend and be done with it..good chance to be in the garage away from the lady and drink some beers anyway

i just redid my pump in the shop with a buddy who has done a few of them...cost me $500 bucks for the pump kit with EVERYTHING you will need to have a brand new pump..i also baught the bowl bushing tool which is a must buy to replace the bowl bushings..it also cost me a 30 pack and i had a brand new pump...other than the bowl bushing tool i used everything i had in my roll away to rebuild it...nothing special..just be sure your diligant about keeping everything clean and read the manual about how it all goes together and how it comes apart if you dont have someone who knows what they are doing with you..it will save you a wad of cash to put else where into the boat..
hope that helps some..good luck bud..its a drag for sure, but when the pump is done you will be way stoked
also, i baught everything from CP Performance, who is the owner of Berkeley Jet Drives so you know your getting the most complete kit available and everything will be exactly what you need and will be put back together to factory spec.

ill second that...the beer is an inocent bistandard in this...plus, beer makes every thing better even when its not so pretty so you must of really botched it...or woke up next to it and realized what you did the night before was a HUGE mistake...happens to the best of us...learn from this..always helps to have a qualified wing man

« on: April 24, 2012, 06:41:05 PM »
why? 
no need to pull that off if your rebuilding the pump...the suction housing comes off of the intake with a quick bump..
leave the intake alone
good luck bud!

Jet Pumps / Re: How to get the most from Berkeley 12jg?
« on: April 15, 2012, 07:53:59 PM »If the engine you have seems to be in decent condition I would recommend you start adding some upgrades before you try to build a killer engine.
First, get a good intake manifold and carb combo, install a bigger cam, good push rods, a set of roller rockers, and headers.
See what that gets you, and then you can start building the monster motor if necessary

then a pump for sure

Audio / Re: Speakers
« on: April 07, 2012, 03:40:07 PM »6x9 is a good beater speaker....just cap the bass off to them. They should handle what you throw at them but you might not get the same quality as a 6 1/2 sep. If you have some work working skills...you could make a spacer for the 6x9 to reduce to the 5x7 hole and retain the original holes(screws/speaker).
ill post a pic up later but that would be a total eye sore..these things are in my interior and are in your face when your looking at the boat..which is why i got new ones..if i had wood working skills ide have no issue altering these into the place i need..i dont think it will be an issue just figuered i would make sure im going to make the change for the better
49
so i baught some pretty sweet JBL Marine 6x9s to replace the shot speakers in the back of my boat..the ones that are in the boat are like a 5x7 or something like that..these 6x9s are much bigger for the holes that are already cut into my interior..is the sound going to be that much better out of these 6x9s to enlarge the holes and have those big ass speakers back there?? i have a 10"sub under the bow so im not couting on these for all of my bass..i also have a pair of mids under the bow as well..so there is alot of speaker in this boat..
since i already have them here i was thinking to just do it...but what are your guys thoughts??

« on: April 07, 2012, 11:06:48 AM »
try resetting your box before ordering anything...there are directions on MSDs site on how to do it so i wont tell you how..you should hear a quick little "click" from the box when it happens...also a low battery can cause your box to not operate properly which will cause you to loose spark as well...even if its cranking over fine it could still be low enough...humor yourself
give it a shot..
charge battery and if that doesnt work, reset your ignition box.
