Looking good. What shoe are you putting back in there?

 

[Big Kahuna]

JD.

 

[Proformance1]

Pop her open to around 148 if she is not already. Little harder to do a cleaner install but works better with the larger 148 pump.

 

[Big Kahuna]

Will do. Once I get it and get shoe fitted, will get machined out.

 

[Proformance1]

Epoxy the shoe in with the pump, makes for a perfect fit.

 

[Big Kahuna]

That what I planned to do. Use the pump as a jig

Make sure the pump is aligned with midshaft too. Need to borrow a cold fusion alignment tool?

 

[Big Kahuna]

Ducky loaned me his CF tool

little progress yesterday and today. Since it's Thanksgiving I want to give thanks to a few guys here that have been a wealth of knowledge and have put up with a lot of questions. Sanoman (he is probably regretting saying call me anytime if your need advoce), McDog, Jr. And Nate (thanks for advice and Carbon Scraps and microbaloons- yeah, don't sneeze while pouring these out!). Plus others that have chimed in. Oh, last picture just because. What's not to like about that!

Looking good grasshopper. I really need to get your pump out. Mine was delayed. I'm box building today.

 

[Big Kahuna]

I was gonna wait to ship my pump out. Glad I found a box. Set a new record. Shipped the same day I received funds. But I was off work also!

BK, use washers as shims if you have to. SF can be a huge pain to build but the ride is worth it.

 

[Big Kahuna]

Pump bolted in no shims is way out of wack. Drive shaft coming thru the CF alignment tool is at 4 o'clock!

Have 2 shims on each front pump bolt, then pushed the rear to left side as much as I could. This got it centered Left to Right of the Driveshaft tube.

My ski also has alot of side play in the pump. Once you have it all aligned we have found it very successful to use permatex ultra-black between the shoe and the pump seal and nothing between the pump seal and the pump. When it sets up the seal will stay with the shoe and the pump can be pulled to tweek a prop and it bolts in and out every time.

 

[Proformance1]

I dont mean to use no shims but to buy and use washers as shims. I use thin and thick washers once i find the right spot with alignment tool. Sometimes cheat and mill down a washer to fit
