Is your SKI ready

[smoofers]

So far I have mounted the handlepole and run cables. Test fit my new pipe and figured out mounting for it. Pump/impeller/rideplate/grate installed. Carb rebuilt and rejetted, new motor mounts installed.

Left to do:
-Turf
-Drop in motor and plumb lines.
-wire bilges/install bilge fittings
-cut up and turf chinpad
-other misc crap I can't think of

Travis' ski is almost done, all he has left is to finish turfing.

Orange ski
Wire TL
connect pump
put Handle pole on
run cables

That's where you were two days ago, you just need to move closer, I could have you ski done in a couple of hours grampa :drillsergeant:

Mine is ready, nothing like new power bombs to make an old square better, test and tune this afternoon :bigok:

[RMBC Freeride]

test? tune?

what are these things you speak of?

So Shawn... Will we be tuning your new ski at Surfside? I will have a complete set of jets with me.

I've got the jets in it and set where Paul recommended them - I think they are close - but a more experienced rider's opinion would be most appreciated.

I know the pipe needs to be heated up (less water) - I set those on the wide range of Paul's suggestion.

Hurry Subsea!! Times running out. :wink:

I put hood straps and limiting rope on yesterday. My stock SJs gonna fly Friday.
Hopefully.

 

[subseawellhead]

:woot:I am hurrying, I need to take the boat and cut grass at the camp also, leaving for Houston Wed.

 

[smoofers]

As of last night, Travis' ski is finished. My ski just needs turfed rails, hood straps, pole limit rope, and a flush hose. Should have it done by tuesday. Best part is, yesterday when all of the underhood was finished, I pumped the primer twice and the ski fired up on the first try.
