very cool.
you didnt have to post a pic for many here to belive you, and i sure for others but some asshats cant seem to have any patience.
my Great Grandfather was machinist for boeing and lockheed in the 40's and 50's. He had some awesome stories about what he worked on......very impressive for the time and tool around him.
I was able to hang out in his shop while growing up.
AND i never made him prove it to me with pics or write ups what he worked on.

we are only talking a couple of pounds of ballast to level out the handling and keep nose down in chop and such

Thanks for the pic ! yes it looks like a '' pneumatic compression fuel injection body'' to me ! however that doesent mean its goes on an x-2 !!! that could be any valve body off of any piece of machinery !!! you have failed to produce a believeable picture ! sorry nooooooo believvveeeeeee as of yet ! just a little bait before you set the hook ,IMO ! follow me little sheepies for my name is '' David koresh '' he had followers too , that got toasted !. I have been proven wrong many times and am waiting patiently to be done so again , until then I'll stand my ground ! with all due respect this is Fodder !!Please prove me wrong ! Again thanks for the fun thread to stimulate everyones thinking !

I'm with Blaster. You can't gauge size by the picture without a reference but Unless your using microscopic hardware to put the thing together, you never get all that plumbing into an X2 hull. Not with out a crowbar to close the hood.

how can you tell how much it weighs? I can't tell how big it is.

it has to bolt up to the intake ports on the engine. So gotta figure at least that big. That is a chunk of aluminum rigth there.

once again
This piece is 18 ounces lighter than a dual carb set up with reed cages and air cleaners. And like I said Blaster you would not be able to identify 99% of this motor...I know I know just because it does not say riva, novi, or factory pipe,ect, its no good.

Well if I cant identify it '' then POST away''' ! lets see what ya got ? I think I identified this piece as not going in an x-2 correctly ! I have seen many R&D projects and the scrap pile is usually larger then the finished product pile, and thats with a whole engineering crew on the project ! come on give it up , your busted and late at writing this book its been done ''' I have a dream '' Nothing against dreaming though ,,, its good for the soul ! keep us posted im watching with great ''''' ?

:bs2: That's a valve body off an aircraft hydrulic system I'd guess, not a ski part.
That's a good point, why not put a 750 or 800 cc in there? What is the logic behind your choice here? I'm not so interested in weather or not this ski actually exists as some want proof of but I would like to know some of the science and reasoning behind your decisions.
Fill us in as to why you are building this ski with the parts and technology that you have chosen. . .

Thanks for the picture!
I have no idea how that would work on a motor, and so I don't know what I'm looking at, but no big deal, I figure you'll post up sooner or later with the final product...
I'm still on the fence about it... Just because I can't tell what the hell that was in the picture... but just because I don't get how it would work, doesn't mean it wont....

I tell ya
Ahh i tell ya some people.....Blaster, I am fairly certain your expeirence of r&d has never ventured outside of the garage with a vice, drill press and if your lucky maybe a bridgeport. I happend to notice that you have made no comments on types of metal......That gives me the first clue that you would not know an r&d project if it fell on your head....You know is billet aluminum.....An I HIGHLY DOUBT YOU CAN GIVE THE CORRECT DEFENITION OF WHAT BILLET ALUMINUM IS......And I GURANTEE YOU COULD NOT MACHINE YOUR WAY OUT OF A PAPER BAG.....YOU DIDNT BUILD YOUR SKI......YOUR WALLET DID!!!!
