Nope, Andy’s was a square nose

I’m going to throw this out, awhile back my buddy was having a similar problem, ski ran great cold for 5-10 minutes then started breaking up. He borrowed some plugs and the problem went away. The original plugs looked like new, nice and clean because they were new. They were solid top NGK’s. He...

I had the same issue. I took an 80 grit "flapper wheel" on a drill was able to quickly clearance the inside bore to the point that the bearings slid right in.

Looks like a lot of work, but you will turn it into a work of art. As far as being low, looks like it will work as long as you don’t do riser bars. Us old guys need all the help we can get, getting back on that ski in rough surf. Elbows are the trick.

Impressive job! Be careful working with that glue and open heaters, the vapors can flash and ruin your day

“Gramps”, I know that hurts!

5.75” wide x 4.5” deep

Yes, I took the factory tubbies off, then cut the ride plate flush at the rear and then “D” cut it. It made the ski ride higher in the front, much looser, much better handling and cut the water in your face to almost nothing. The hull has more than enough built in tubbies without the extensions...

Do any of you guys make an upside down "P" trap with silicone hose for the exhaust tube just in front of the bulkhead to stop the water from coming in from the rear of the ski?

Listen to OCD, close those plug gaps to .024”. OEM ignition, even with a MSD Enhancer has a tendency to find a place to leak to ground once it’s too hard to jump the plug gap. We experienced this problem when installing solid top NGK’s without gapping them, they come gapped around .030”-.032”...

125P, 135M, 2.0 needle & seat, 27psi pop-off, 1.5 turns on the low and 7/8 turn on top screw. Little rich, but clean and safe

Jeff, all the dust can be dangerous, but your problem is more than likely caused by acid reflux. Google it.

What is the width and length of the four gallon tank and how do you strap it down?

Smith Performance is the kit to modify a VW into a pickup truck. That is Andy Hesterman that did the truck mod and ownes that Tiger Craft. He is a talented guy.

Always ready to ride a little surf, PM us

It was a fun day for sure. Talking about old guys riding, the guy on the blue SJ is Jim Hill, he is 52 years old and was ripping some nice flips that day.

It is a Yamaha cable clamp, this one was off a Raider, but they used them on most of the couches for steering and trim cables. I'm sure Jetmaniac has hundreds of them.

Move 165 miles east and you can do it every day!
