Here's an update and pics
got everything in the hull started and sounds great although there is a small air leak some where (probably carb basegaskets since Jordan ripped both puttin them on) order some new ones and will need to put those on. i am going to do a leak down test before for piece of mind however.
got the pump together, and x-metal trim situated, that needed some tweaking to say the least. Also got some turf on tray, finally, only a couple more spots to go and then only the chin pad and rails left to turf.

Gettin hot here in Michigan, would be nice to get this thing on the water this weekend.

Custom fabbed up dual pickups to run with the dual carb setup...looks great and fit exactly where i needed it too!

lol True, but I gotta blame someone...btw if someone wouldn't have routed the lines facing the back they wouldnt have had to come off now would they...hahaha.

Sunday may work!! If it keeps raining today, no race track for me ill just put the ski together instead!

Looks freakin' killer! So what ended up being the issue with the Hooker not fitting?

Did my leak down test, pumped motor up to 8psi and gave it 10 minutes and at the end of the ten minutes it dropped somewhere like a 1/2 psi.
Was good enough for me, threw the carbs back on with new gaskets and that baby started right up and idled nicely. Needs a little tuning but other then that everything is a GO!!!
