This is the drive-line section so allow me to express my opinion on me new motor.
I picked up my Team Scream 62t/61x 701 (717 is what it came out to).
I have dual 46's with Chuckys intake setup, cases and cylinder ported, b-pipe with all the bells and whistles that Chucky offers and a Riva head.
The motor fired up and idled perfect right out of the box so yesterday I threw the ski into the water and went for a warm up ride.
Since my old motor was a piped 650 some of you here with monster motors might find this funny and childish but the first time I pulled on the throttle I scared the shait out of my self.
The power was amazing with instant pull at any rev range. Crisp throttle response that resulted with the ski jumping out of the water and a huge grin on my face.
The power to weight ratio just got screwed waaay out and now my ski feels like a whole different animal. With all the torque I no longer have to wait for the motor to pull me out of a slide. Now all I have to do is aim and pull the throttle and it's off. I can actually plow the nose into the water and power through the turn where before that was a waste of time.
Yesterday was the first time I hit my own setup wake because I had the power to turn the ski and get to the wake on time. Amazing.
3 of us took turns riding the ski allowing it to cool down between rides and all 3 of us suffered the same forearm extension and silly grins. We were wiped out and all we used up was a third of a tank of gas.
I was going to write something yesterday but all I could do when I got home is giggle and grin plus my arm was in pain and my fingers were shaking.
Like I said, some of you will laugh as you fire up your 1000cc monsters but I am over the moon.
Chucky built me a killer motor and I couldn't be happier.
From the beginning all I heard was good things about Team Scream power so I contacted Chucky and right of the bat was impressed with his knowledge and the willingness to work with me. He advised me on what and where to buy without trying to cram parts down my throat and we came up with just the right package in my price range.
"Under promise and over-deliver" was something that I heard Chucky say and boy did he.
Thank you Chuck and the whole X-Scream team for taking care of all my BRAAP needs. This motor is my first but as my power habit grows you will be hearing from me.
