It sounds like your goal is to flat water flip... You could just save 1000 more dollars and get a BOB... your motor will flip a BOB... And this option would save yourself about 8k

thats a great idea but i love my hull!!!, nothing against a bob,

you really think you can get a 1000 for 2600?

 

[lakeboy183]

NO!!!! i wish i could though, im looking to get the pump set up for it

i think what he meant is "can i buy a mag that will run with what i have now and also later with a 1000cc engine?"..... i can't answer that since i don't have either.

dont waste your time with a mag and a 701,just get what you need for now,and get a mag later if you ever end up with 1000cc

yes, good advice.
a mag pump will be the last piece of the puzzle.

i want one, but for surf its a different story. the hookup in whitewater is just unreal.

Don't get a Blowsion trim. We HAD one in the Demo BOB... that's all I'll say. Get the X-Metal trim system! They are killer! Very affordable, too. I'd wait on a Magnum Pump until you get a larger motor. You could always use that $2,600 on gas money! That'll get you a lot of riding time, lol.

Ive always been wondering this myself. A mag pump is far cheaper than a big bore sure it can help out on a 701? Ive always seen it this way. A big bore without a mag pump is kind of like a race car with street tires.

here is my experience. i have a 144 mag pump (14-19) on a 771cc big bore. my ski hooks up and pulls just as hard as a few of the powervalve motors i have ridden. people on here will tell you a mag is not worth it till you hit 900 or 1000cc, well i say bull chit. i have riden quite a few skis and quite a few people have ridden mine and will tell you it hits very very hard on the bottom. even with a dry pipe it hit hard on the bottom. the mag pump makes a huge difference. i have also been on another ski almost identical to mine that had an oem pump and the same pitch impeller and there was no comparison. i cant say for sure how it would be on a 701 but if anyone wants to try my ski at any rides im at feel free to judge for yourself.

 

[ncbrock]

im sure you can expect somewhat similar results with a 701 if you have a 771.

 

[SurferSmurf]

well then i say buy a mag and a tbm flywheel. and for the money you have you could probably get a set of 61x big bore ported cylinders. and have a ski that will hit very hard till you get the big bucks for a 1000cc

 

[waterfreak]

don't worry, with a 1000cc and a skat set back pump, you'll be flipping that ski and love your hull!1:Banane09:

 

[superwetbrett]

i would say get a 145mm setback mag, if you have never ridden a ski with a mag do yourself a favor and DONT otherwise you will have to have it.. just as important as the powerplant.. ncbrock i think you said it best race car street tires..

ive ridden small bore stock skis with mags and couldnt tell that big a diff to a stock WELL setup pump,I have strokers at less than 830cc with hooker props and the right size nozzle bore that explode off bottom no slip at all.ID spend the extra $ on better motor parts for power when I was at the level of 701 for sure.
givin the option to ride a 701 with a mag or a 771 with a stock pump set up well,youd find the second option way more fun

thats why i said for the money he wants to spend now bet a 144mm mag and a 771 top end. with all the new 865ss motors i bet you could find a 61x big bore cylinder for a good price.

i have a stock bore,stroke,carb 701 no porting or anything with a bpipe, ada head, msd with a 140 12 vein mag pump and it was like night and day compared to what it was before with the stock pump with a tbm pump cone setup. running a 13/18, the speed and acceleration is def worth the money. in the chop and surf i beat my buddies ski that is ported, light weight flywheel, dual carbs and all the other goodies just blow right past him. Id say if you can find a used mag for a good price jump on it now and when you get your big bore motor all you will have to do is prop it.
