« on: January 09, 2022, 06:01:02 am »

ok so I finally purchased a set of Berkeley center rise manifolds. I laid the gasket over the ports and found a lot of material that could be removed to help them flow better. I have included some pictures of how they look with one of the ports already started.

These are not high polished like most but are done in a black wrinkle finish, I can post pictures later looking for $300.00 shipping included. Sorry no Venmo payments just got burned so Paypal only accepted no friends and family.

Suggestions / Support / watch out for breej

Ok members be careful of who you deal with here I know it was a stupid mistake on my part trusting someone I didn't know.....
quick details are breej turned me over to his buddy selling a set of center rise BBF manifolds.(prrt57@yahoo.com) I contacted breej before doing any deals and he stated that he has dealt with him several times.
long story short I spent $350.00 for nothing in return.
I have bought several parts from other members on this site with no problems and thought that possibly I was dealing with a real gentleman.

moderators please let me know if this is posted in the wrong location.

Projects / New Engine Build

« on: February 09, 2021, 08:33:57 am »

Hello new here to jet boats but not to building engines. I've got a 460 that I am redoing trying to keep it dependable but putting some decent parts in it. Block is going .030 over with a .000 deck, heads are Performer RPM 60665,Pistons are JE flat top -3cc, intake is an Air Gap Performer RPM, Holley 850cfm mechanical carb. I've heard about issues with oil pans so I went with a Dooley 9 qt.
OK so here comes the question Id like to use a solid roller cam but not sure about specs. I was looking at the Comp Cam site and thought the 34-803 or 34-850 looked a bit to much.
Anyone have any first hand experience other than to call comp?
Boat is a 20' Sutphen

Projects / Sutphen Super Pacer

« on: February 02, 2021, 06:57:19 am »

Hello I m new here and new to Jet boats. I picked up a 77 Sutphen Super pacer with a 460. Previous owner had a set of Basset water injected TT headers on it. I dont think he had them set up correctly and filled the engine with water.
Here is the question,
It has 4.0 tips with internal baffles and I have a set of Hardin log manifolds and snails I would like to install. The snails are 3.0 outlet and The Bassett had 4.0 outlets,do they make an adapter or different size snail or can I cut off the outlet and weld on a 4.0 aluminum pipe?
