Hey guys I just picked up a 22 mini day tahiti from a friend (should be coming home on the weeknd of the 24th) but it has a Jacuzzi WJ. I would like to change to a Berk 12-JC (split if you got it) with out breaking the bank. So looking for Berk 12-JC what do you have...

I got a Berk 12 JG, split bowl, and it's original intake, etc. Pumps been rebuilt, bowl has had a lot of tuning work done (Not by me, before I got it), intake is machined for a shoe and a ride plate. Lemme know.

What are you looking to gain by switching to a Berk?

If it was a YJ I wouldn't question the change, but I don't believe the Berk is going to make much difference compared to the WJ, at lease not in a 22 footer.

I agree Kieth. Shit if my boat had a wj instead of my yj I'd be happy with it. Talk to Tom at jet boat performance he'll get you wherever you wanna be with that wj.

The reason I said Berkeley is this is only my second boat. The first being a little Kona with a Berk JC. I am not familiar with any other brands. The float is a 22' miniday so its rather large. With the weight and size I want to attempt to get into the 60mph range which may or may not happen but I am not sure this is achievable with the Jacuzzi WJ as I know nothing about the Jacuzzi pumps, but do know that there is a place diverter Looking to build the motor at about 450hp.

You already have the best upgrade you could do for a WJ (the diverter  ).  The WJ isn't going to be the limiting factor in running 60's.  The weight and the shape/condition of the bottom will affect your top speed more than the pump.

Personally I would recommend using the money you would spend the Berk on engine upgrades to help performance & longevity (a good intake, carb & cam combo, improved ignition system, roller rockers...).

i have a 12jc berk thats in great condition, lets swap
