Super Jet 2000 sj build finished

[jahimmelspach]

been slowly getting the parts together since december. shes all done now and i had it on the water yesterday. The ski rips and im pumped to start doing some rolls on it this season.

2000 SJ reinforced hull
Riva 760 5 mil stroker
Riva Billet head
Riva 46 carbs
B pipe with Mod chamber (Head pipe and mani ported by X Metal)
ATP water box
and a bunch of little things
Running on a new Skat 10-18 right now.

It was my first build and I'm happy with how ski turned out.

Thanks to everyone who helped with the build and getting the parts

let me know what you think

Looks good! I am curious how it hits. Did u have any porting done?

Riding it the other day it hit really good. i didnt tune anything yet or even mess with the pipe settings that i got from steveuk. the motor came out of a Riva built blaster with a riva red pipe on it. but I couldn't believe how it ran after putting it together and not tuning anything.

as far as porting goes, yes the motor was ported pretty heavily i assume from Riva. i was worried it wasnt going to have enough low end and that it would be race ported, but it pulls hard all over. its a stock 144 pump with a blowsion pump cone and the skat 10/18 prop, it does have a pretty aggressive grate too.
