There is already a really nice 140mm/12 Vane Kawasaki version. Very nice piece, includes the reduction & steering/drop nozzle setup. I sell quite a few of them and have used one with great success in a limited application.

Not trying to thread jack, but there is a Solas 12-Vane pump for Kawasaki's. Great pump, I've had excellent success with them.
Sweet. Do you have these in stock now?

Polished the pump
Wanted to give my pump some luv before I install it, so I polished the sandcasting flaws out of the pump with 180 and then 320 grit tapered porting rolls . if you look at the very first post you can see a ''joining seam'' on one of the veins , there were several of them plus numerous booggers here and there in the pump ... Im not complaining at all its still a super price for a pump just showing what I did to it to help out the flow a little bit now it baby butt smooth and should be ready to rip in tona this year.

ScottS finally ordered one so we should get to do a side by side comparison soon.
Me and jkemp installed mine about a week ago....and I got to try it out Christmas eve! I must say I am happy with it 
Definetly noticed more hookup and my flat water jumps were much higher.
The installation was very straight forward, was just like replacing the stocker. Besides the prop being a SOB to remove we had to add some heat to get the bearings out/in. Also with this pump I had to ground out the reduction nozzle a little bit to fit the ring on the pump along with grinding down the nozzle atleast 1mm because it was too big giving a lip to it.

Good News ! I got to ''Tona 2012 '' on wednesday and rode for an hour to get the feel of my ski after being down for 2 months after a knee scope . Then thursday morning I installed the Mag pump and rode again '' WOW '' I was impressed , It feels like I just installed a new motor ''Im serious ''!!! all I can say is this is the best bang for the buck that money can buy ,HUGE difference . I did three things before installing ,#1 I gently sanded the od diameter of the little adapter ring on a disc sander to make a better fit into the nozzle so I did not need to grind out the nozzle relief ,#2 I ported the sand casting interior of the pump to make it smooth without imperfections ''1 hr'' ''' It is a SAND casting so it has a few !! #3 and I matched pump cone to stator hub diameter so it was perfect , I did this just to make the water flow smoothly . I was skeptical before buying this , but now Im sold on a mag pump !!! I have no vested interests in either skat or Thrust so you make the decision....... $1000 Plus ! VS $ 500 , Its a nobrainer to me on which direction I would go again ,Thanks to THRUST for bringing an affordable Mag that many more skiers will be able to afford .
My same exact feedback as well
I am very interested in your stock reduction nozzle theory about the extra vane removeal. It makes total sense to take these out now after looking at the different mag pumps. I am going to try and find a stocker that I can hack up to try this out
