Hi all newbie question. my pump is stamped je on the tag but I am unsure if it is a split bowl? I think the pump is a setback pump with a ride plate. Just trying to figure out what I have. Any info would be appreciated.

For sure a JE and its not a split bowl. As far as being "set back" im pretty sure that is the stock location for that pump.

That there is a
Berkeley Jet Drive Model 12JF
It's a Eco pump not much for high HP more for your family ski boat. I have the same pump on my 1990 Dana mini 19'

Negative Ghost Rider.
That is a 12JE.
That pump will take as much HP as you can throw as long as you can keep it loaded.
A 12JF has factory installed trim (Jetovater) and a split bowl.
The weak link in this pump is the noticeably short intake section that is actually molded into the hull.
Not a terrible pump at all. Just somewhat limited in the world of "bolt ons".
There is actually a Place Diverter model available for this pump. They are stupid rare used.
Nice boat!

GT when I look up the 12je on Berkeley website it looks nothing like that pump specially the bole. Did they make more then one bole for this pump?
Just wondering because I have the same pump but cannot mount a droop or anything like the one in the picture.
Just wondering.

Don't know what your looking at, but with the exception of the controls the 12JE is identical to 12JC from the bowl flange back.

When you say cruises, I hope you mean part throttle running. It is my humble opinion that ALL jet boats should top out between 50-60 mph stock.

Yes part throttle not into secondaries about 3800 rpm. I think max speed I've seen is 50 at about 5000 rpm.

I was comparing the picture of jbrundahl3@yahoo.com
To the pictures on
Www.berkeleyjet.com
Looks to me the 12JC and E have different intakes. But what I was wondering I suppose is can the 12JG bowl be mounted to a 12JE so you can mount a droop etc.
If you notice they have a different bowl on Berkeley's web site compared to the one I have and the one jbrundahl3@yahoo.com has that you can not mount a droop etc.
Nor install a SS intake or even more aggressive intake or even a shoe in. Like you can the 12JG.
I'm just wondering because I have always wanted to mount a droop and a Placediverter on my Dana but it has the 12JE so the bowl does not have the mounting holes just the steering pins.
GT thanks for your input man.✌️👍

You can mount a droop and a Place Diverter to A 12JE or JF.
But you have to change the way it's controlled. The steering won't work, the reverse bucket cable won't work, it's just a little more work.
There is no intake on an E or F. It is a mold insert.

The bowls interchange without issue but steering is different. JE have steering on the bottom, JG have steering on the top.
The intake is way different. The JE is steeper and designed to have the bowl farther back out of the hull. JE pumps need a good loader to work well.
Another option is to have your current bowl modified to take JG bolt on accessories... the "C" bowl that JE pumps use is actually a better design and more efficient for most uses.

I am doing a aggressor style insert pump And useing a droop and changed location of steer to jg style

Yeah that was what I thought. My Dana mini intake is glassed in around the pump crazy looking.
Where is on my CP it has the 12JG very different setup for sure a lot more going on between the two.

So the loader your talking about is the grate on the bottom. What does a performance loader look like? How do you order one or do you have to have one made? I have a 1989 ultra.

here just a couple pics of a loader grate. the general idea is to move water up higher into the impeller. it helps keep the pump 'loaded'. i believe you can just buy one or order one from a jet boat performance shop....not sure of price. may need to know what pump/intake you have.

This has actually never been proven. Personally I believe if there is a difference it is because of the terrible transition from the G bowl to the steering adapter

This could easily be taken the wrong way. Please do not take it in a negative manner.
You really need to consider replacing the stainless loader hardware with hardened black oxide hardware and through bolt it all the way through with nuts and hardened washers on top.
Edit: is is a total optical illusion. My bad. The shoe looks ok. Get them bolts changed...

Lol I don't take any thing off a forum or the internet to hart. I just like picking brain's for information and take it into consideration and a grain of salt.
Could I just have it coated with something. And your referring to the screw bolts? Don't I want something counter sunk? And your saying drill all the way through and do a nut and bolt?
Thanks GT

You don't want to coat the loader because then you cannot see the cracks. If anything spay paint it white so you will see the dark spots if it ever cracks. The bolts should go all the way thru the intake as GT has said. This will help insure that the loader will not get lose. You should check the loader everytime before you drop the boat in the water. Also they do make Allen head counter sunk bolts. You nylocks and lock washers on the inside of the boat also

I gotcha. Just not hex. Now as far as my loader not being shinny or something I would like to know of a Finnish I could do to the one I have. Open for some ideas. Thanks guys✌️👍

that is Jimpens loader from b1 it's extremely good quality. And planning on ordering one to try out myself. I currently run a MPD of shelf loader. But that one also works amazing

Don't coat it! If you do then you will not see the cracks if they come up. The only way to get them shinny like Jims is to order a stainless one. Your loader is fine, you can take a little scotch brite to it and clean it up, then spray paint it white.

X2. DO NOT COAT THE LOADER! I take mine out after every day on the water and red dye check the loader after every race day.
Also do yourself a favor and never use slotted hardware. Those always are a pain in the ass! Grade 8 black oxide Alan head bolt. 👍👍👍

This is going to sound completely retarded. Rust is actually a very good coating. Pick up some Ospho and spray it down. done.

Hahaha rust? Hu what?

...and yes, he meant drill all the way thru and use a hardened washer and nut. Will be stronger than threads used on intake housing.
