Jet Pumps / Re: 12JE Reversed cable
« on: July 23, 2018, 09:22:56 PM »
I had the same deal with my JF pump. Cable slid out too far and tore up the new boot. I know there’s supposed to be a white nylon ring around the cable Inside that disc but the cable does still  slide. Just have to clamp the boot where it can move lock to lock freely. The boot is the main seal. And the nylon ring is the backup but will leak a bit if the boot is torn. On mine anyway. Haha. Hope that helps.

It depends on ur set up , most jet guys don’t run them because the can adjust the temp with a gate valve . Some will use them to slow the water down to keep the water longer in the block , it’s a personal preference thing , my buddy’s 210s hallett has one because he runs injection and the system looks at the water temp and adjusts for it . But old school set ups u really don’t need them , just run with the gate valve .

I called Wayne’s they don’t freshen up engines. I asked if they could just go though it and change the rings and bearings they said they only do compete rebuilds. I’m taking it to bostick racing engines.

I just pick up a 454 with the heads off. Seller said the head gasket was blown. It’s got aluminum pistons and a mild cam. That what I was told. And can see. I’m looking for some one to freshen it up rings bearings ect..... looking for a repeatable reliable engine guy.
