Help me with this decision

[DC SUPERJET]

I have a Roundie with the following:

Footholds
Riva Intake grate
Riva groovy ride plate
stainless prop (still unsure of the pitch)
limited b-pipe
shortened pole
UMI 0 degree bars

I can't decide if my next mod should be #.0's tubbies or a girdled head.

What do you think?

I've been leaning towards the head for some more power and because I just heard about the jugs having cracking issues with b-pipes.

I put some tubbies on my SN before last season
and I am still not sure I like them
If it was me, go for more power!
unless you dont like the way your boat handles now

tubbies are great..a head would be nice and i know we got ya all worried about cracking your cylinder but it should be fine on a stock motor...

id say tubbies

Ya after all my lookin around and research on the b-pipe I never saw anything about the cylinders.

I have always heard handling before power too...hmmmmm
any more votes?

I usually try to just do a search and figure this out on my own instead of posting stupid questions, but I can't figure this one out.

i vote head. get the insurance as early as you can. the tubbies can wait. makes no sense to have a great handling hull that sits on the trailer because the motor is cracked.

i rode my bpipe..motor with a stock head for a year the surf with no probs...but you never know

plenty of people here that can say the exact opposite. :-(
personally i would get the head since you are going to want it eventually anyway and will be running a risk until you do get it. *shrug* or you could let luck tide you by. im just not much for counting on luck.

More Power!!! Then ride more. The more you ride, the more comfortable you'll get and perhaps the need for Tubbies goes away.

It also depends on flat water vs. surf. In surf I like the tubbies, in flat water I would probably skip them.

I ride in lake michigan, so it's sorta both flat and surf (if you can call it that). And I'm plenty comfortbale on my ski, it always just seemed like tubbies were a must.

I'm going with a head. (for now)

Thank guys.
