Powerfactor pipe dimensions

[Dalton]

Does anyone have the distance from a point on the engine like the flywheel cover to the furthest forward point of the powerfactor pipe?

Not my picture. The red line shows what I'm looking for.

About 18 inches- on a Polaris engine...! I'm curious as well about a comparable measurement on a Yamaha. Must be much longer.

Does anyone know what waterbox is in that picture?

Does anyone know what waterbox is in that picture?

If the mid section of the box is cut out or notched inward on the fuel tank side then it could be an xmetal.... Hard to tell on phones pic

@speedysprocket Thanks, I didn't even realize polaris engines might differ from yamaha in this dimension.

Nobody has the measurement for a yamaha engine? I'm assuming kawasaki would be the same measurement as yamaha?

 

[speedysprocket]

Careful on your assumptions... Polaris has a larger distance between the pistons than the 701 based yamahas, and a much larger stator housing. I can only imagine kawis have differences, too.

 

[Dalton]

My assumption was based on the fact that yamaha powerfactor manifold bolts to the kawasaki cylinders with just a conversion plate. You are right though, there may be a difference in distance to the stator housing.

 

[speedysprocket]

Power factor bolts to a Polaris too... with a conversion plate...! Polaris sure is a bulky engine. I guess EME makes a new stator housing that isn't so big- wish I could get ahold of one of those for a decent price... I'll keep dreaming though.
Anyways, good luck with your endeavor!

Can't get access to a clean tangent,up front, so don't machine anything. 23"

Thanks guys. That should be accurate enough for what I'm doing.
