It took a conscious clamping down of my hand every time I made an approach for a flip.

Anyways, old shoe is out and I've almost completed grinding on the new metal shoe. This one will actually match the 148 pump.

New shoe almost ready to go. Grinding it out to 148.5 took a while

I don't think you could get this one opened up to 155. Blowsion offers a 155mm SJ/Blaster pump shoe, but they were out of stock. Otherwise I would have got that.

I forgot!
I wonder how a true 155 shoe is to fit into a SJ hull when the pump inlet cavity is not quite 155. I hogged mine out to make it a true 155 inlet.

What kind is yours I got mine from blowsion and it opens up to 155 but I removed the inner lip ring to do it.

That's the same one I got then. 95 bucks or so?
It was kind of rough lol. No holes drilled nothing.

wouldnt of had to do all that drilling and tapping if you had gotten xr tech pump shoe and its cheaper. just saying...:stups:

1. The drilling and tapping was very minor compared to opening up the shoe to 148 and grinding away all the epoxy from my hull, so it would have save a minimum amount of work.

2. This shoe was cheaper for me. (sponsored)

3. Anything I order from Blowsion gets here the next day.

4. I like ordering from Blowsion. They take care of me.
