    B pipe tuning on 701

    Just got a b pipe from a 2003 octane and put it on my 02 superjet 701. So far the ski runs great but I want to do some tuning for freestyle. All I want is low end and mid range power. Not concerned for top end what so ever. I know there is instructions on the factory web site but I want to get...

    701 running on 1 Cylinder... need help!

    Im also running a 61x flywheel and stator with a 62T cdi but as far as my knowledge goes that is fine. Only thing is you have to use a male to male jumper wire to connect the red and white wires.

    701 running on 1 Cylinder... need help!

    So I just finished putting together a 701 engine. New crank, new pistons etc. The ski will start and run but its only running off the rear cylinder. Both sides have even compression at 170, both sides have spark. When I pull the plug on the front cylinder that isn't firing the plug comes out wet...

    Other Craven - Excellent seller

    Paul (aka craven) is a great guy to deal with. I purchased a ski from him not long ago, and it was exactly as described. Not only did he give me a good price on the machine, but he drove 8 hours to meet me half way. When I purchased the ski he said the fywheel and cover would be mailed to me...

    Picture of my piston... What does this tell you?

    Its a factory dry pipe. Im pretty sure its a type 9 but im not 100%. Im running dual cooling as well. 1 to the exhaust manifold and 1 to the pipe. Is there water screws on the dry pipes?

    Picture of my piston... What does this tell you?

    I guess first off my setup is a std bore 701 with freestyle ported cylinders. Factory dry pipe, msd enhancer and dual 48mm sbn carbs on R&D intake manifold and V force reeds. I have girdled head with 170 psi and a skat trak 13/17 prop. Last season I was running bigger domes and was only at...

    Picture of my piston... What does this tell you?

    It seems like detonation around the squish area of the piston... This is the first ive ever seen it so im not sure what it is or what causes this. Any ideas?

    Picture of my piston... What does this tell you?

    Hey this is a picture of my old piston. A rod bearing let go and got into the top end and banged up my piston.... But on both pistons around the whole edge its pitted and rough... Can someone tell me what this means and what causes this? Both pistons look the same except this one has the...

    Compression question.

    I finally figured it out. The Comp tester I was using was fine, but I was using the wrong size adaptor. The adaptor was the correct thread but at the top end of the threads it was not wide enough to seat the oring properly so pressure was blowing by the oring. Didn't realize it till I put some...

    Compression question.

    No. I bought the Cyl and pistons last season from him. They were not flat tops.

    Compression question.

    Elevation is 1580 ft above sea level. Same elevation last season when I tested comp.

    Compression question.

    Air temp/humidity is generally the same, its all done in a heated shop so it shouldnt be far off. This is a diff comp guage tho, a new one I picked up (that I tested on another engine too and it worked fine) same head gaskets but different base gasket. The gasket I used last year was .020 thou I...

    Compression question.

    No I have not ran the engine yet. I do think after the rings are seated comp might go up a bit... but not enough to where I want to be. Last season when I put it together it read 145 psi, I broke it in and checked it several times, and it still came up as 145 psi. The guage is new and I just...

    Compression question.

    New pistons and rings. WSM platnium pistons and rings... Thats what I dont get. Why is my compression so low? Last season with 35cc domes I was running 145 psi. The ski ran great none the less but it doesn't seem right. Now with the 33cc domes, new pistons and rings im still at 145 psi.

    Compression question.

    Yah I understand with porting your compression will be lower, but why would the compression be the same with 33cc and 35cc domes?

    Compression question.

    Heres the issue. Im running a 701 (62T bottom, 61x top) freestyle ported by judge motorsports. Last season I had greater head on with 35cc domes. I was running 145 psi and spun a rod bearing at the end of season... Needle bearing made it up to the top end and damaged one piston (cyl are still...
