That looks really clean with all that aluminum and those bright blue rhass mounts

I agree man, definitely worth the money. Saves time and beer! Had to cut about 3/16 out of each side of the battery tray to fit my battery. Other than that it's flawless.

Do you do composites for a living? Cuz it looks like you did a pretty good job on the front of this thing

No, first time ever doing fiberglass was the flat deck.two seasons ago. Then went to carbon fiber, when did whole makeover. Lay it paint it sand it. Learn as you go pretty much. I'm a diesel me mechanic by trade. Had an idea in my head and went for it. Couple hundred hours later this is what I got.

I swong by tonight and checked it out sure is a tight fit but the 701in a 550 really looks like a good swap

Damn that thing will be scary at full speed. My built 550 was a bit of a wrestling match at full throttle.
Very cool project nonetheless.

I'm glad to see my engine is going to a good home.
Bring your ski by one day and we can weigh it. I have a scale that I put on a hoist.

110 degree day, made it hard working in the garage all afternoon. Not enough room in that nose for a water box unfortunately. Good thing a buddy of mine had a resonator chamber I can use for now. Dry fit of everything looks good.

Pretty savage project. What's the plan for the pump/impeller?
- Location

I have my skateboard track impellor being worked on right now, custom pitch and grind. trying to get some ride time in, not sure how the pump will handle the power but I gotta try. The plan after I move is to get a custom fiberglass pump shoe and glass it in, giving me the thrust I'll need behind that motor.

Is the ebox gonna fit on that mount. It looked pretty tight behind that engine and bpipe. Add some extra water injection to that resonator so it doesn't make ya deaf! Lol. I ran a resonator on my 300/650sx conversion and it was chitty loud with a resonator and no waterbox!
Looks like it'll be a fun ride though!

There is actually quite a bit of room behind the motor for the Ebox. Besides the expansion chamber everything fits pretty well. EXCEPT the water box, I was struggling for a out two hours trying to make it fit. I could hardly get it in place but then trying to get coupler stretched over the chamber to the box while everything was in place was a different story. The resonator has a port for water injection, I'm Gunna pipe straight from the head into it. Good thing used to riding with ear plugs.
