in a similar situation with my 61x right now, do you need to do anything else to run at 82mm? (Domes, ports, etc?) stock 61x with a coffmans system, project ski
Possibly, but 15-30 mins at 200-300f is a lot different than several hours at 400 where it can actually soak and hold that consistent temp long enough for change. I’m gonna just give it 15-20 mins at a time and try to tap them out
I didn’t realize the sleeves would fall right out after a short period, I thought they would be soaking for multiple hours at 400+F and still need some convincing with a deadblow to come out according to the comments above.
Thanks for the info! does anyone have the alloy composition for oem cylinders? If so I could look up or create the time, temperature transformation (TTT) curves for them, and could help share a heat treatment plan that would return the cylinders close to their original hardnesses through slow...
Thanks for this thread guys! I was about to have my cylinder re-sleeved on one side at a shop but I think I can handle the sleeve swap now. All I need is the help to bore match the new piston. Any recommendations on good stock bore sleeves for a 701 61x? Assuming it would need to be all oem...
Alright I picked up an oem starter, do you add any sort of silicone or sealant around it to ensure no water gets into the bendix area? I don’t really trust that one little o ring to do the trick
Does anyone know if the WV 1100 has the same coupler splash cover guard as a superjet? I can’t tell the difference by photo as they look pretty identical.
Thanks!
Just noticed my project ski motor has no starter on it, has anyone tried any other brands of starter motors on their SJ or is OEM the only way to go? I know that some try to use a sleeve instead of needle bearings like OEM which shortens their life significantly. Didn’t know if there were some...
Are there any good ways to do a less intrusive inspection to check if your foam is waterlogged? I’m afraid to put my nice new tray mats on my 96 rebuild because the hull had some tray cracks in it when I first bought it.. everything will be well sealed on this rebuild for future leaks but don’t...
Hey all, I’m having a hard time on the exploded drawings seeing if I am supposed to have a driveshaft boot on the water side of my driveline as it goes through the hull to the midshaft. I must be looking in the wrong places because I’ve tried every part description and have had no luck finding...
Does anyone know the oem dowel pin dimensions for a SJ pump? I noticed they fell out of my pump while it was disassembled and I was going to make some at work, thanks!
Found a new technique to do this and wanted to post it here as well:
Hey all, I know this is an old dead thread but I wanted to add some input for anyone else beating themselves up trying to get this done. I spent 5 hours on it last night and had it in 5 minutes today. Once you work your bolt...
