thank you!
 
Brian,

thanks for all the info. If you make it and Dan backs it I would likly buy one.

Jeff,

Thanks for your feed back, If you would stock and ship and i would have already bought yours.

Keep up the good work as NEW stuff is what will keep this sport alive.

What does that mean?

What will you do about your ID? You will need to change it to billet blaster or something like that.

The thing that makes the 62t based setup a better option to me is that it actually exists. A few people have the 800 conversion, but Lamey has been around since the earliest days of jetskiing. If you manage to actually get an 800 based motor you are forever tied to a company that has a questionable past if you use their heads, pipe, etc. I would prefer to take my chances with after the sale customer support with Dan Lamey if a problem were to occur. I also don't believe the GP platform offers a significant advantage until the displacement is increased substantially. The Polaris based stuff is proving to be at least as strong and is no more difficult to use in a superjet(maybe easier).

Sorry guys I have been away for a few months... did I just hear someone say 16mm stroker 62t?????

Hell yeah!!:Banane13: I want that billet 1200cc Lamey with one of those powerfactor pipes , a little total loss and some Novi carburation!!

250 hp ++??

What i meant was, you machine it or he does, Dan cross checks it, Dan stocks.

We would have a place we can buy it that will be around next week for support if its needed.

how does WB800BLASTERBILLET sound?
 
Brian,

what would it take to make a pipe to match this?

Should fit Blasters and Superjets and already cleared for PV's. The mani should be already bored to 85mm ( i think that is the number) and have the tuning screws like the Factory Pipes. Make it like the MOD style but with LTD features. or combo of both.

The pipe alone would sell VERY well at the 700 to 800 range. This would cover stock type 61X, 62T and 64X as well as any Lamey type motors.

If it has to made to only fit the Lamey type motors it would sell less and figure your you would be in the 800 to 1K range.

Input please?

Pat

Thanks for posting this. I think the billet cases are a really slick concept. How much weight does it add compared to the cast cases?

I just ordered a 1000cc XScream pro package, and was wondering if your cases will work with that setup?

Thanks,

cases are beautiful but i question the reliability of a 62t stroker crank.
i think the wdk 1200 would be a bit more reliable as the crank is still oem.
we've all seen or heard stories about stroker reliability.
with that said,where's the dry pipe jeff? we're dying here!

How is a stroker crank any less reliable than a stock stroke crank?

U and I think alot alike. LOL
I have run just as much water thru my 5 mil as I did my 701 and I have had 0 issues w/the 5 mil. I can't help but to think that the people that have had issues w/their strokers would have had the exact same trouble w/a stk stroke setup.

Scott,

Thank you and you're welcome.

The cases are identical to a 701 case as far as factory dimensions go. All the bolt patterns are the same.

I only enlarged the crank area and added ribs to keep the case rigid.

The cases can be bought in any configuration/combination you desire. Stock stroke on up to 16MM(and bigger) I can configure the deck surface to match any cylinder. No more trenching into epoxy and they can be repaired indefinitely. I don't imagine anyone having to buy another case.

Bare stock brand new cases are 10lbs. A stock set of filled and trenched set of cases are around 12lbs, if I remember right, I am sure a number of members could verify that as well. My 16MM cases are at 17lbs right now and I am working on getting that down at least another pound, two would be nice though. The 16MM cases also have a raised deck to compensate for the longer rods.

I covered this concern in another post, possibly even earlier in this thread.

You could drive a locomotive through the crank bearing bore of a 701. The bearings are massive. Yamaha had big power and reliability in mind when they selected the crank bearings for this motor.

Thank you Brian.

I believe the stroke they use on my setup is 15mm.. So I'm guessing this would add like 5lbs to my ski or perhaps more? It really looks like it will last a lifetime, my only hesitation is the added weight. Perhaps you and some of the other members wish to give there 2 cents on if that weight difference is a cause for alarm, in consideration of spending so much $$ for a light hull.. Bobby and Patrick might :nutkick: me.. :biggrin:

More than 5, the crank wheels are bigger as well. It will altogether no doubt to be a heavier package all around.

Brian

Doubtful it is 15MM stroke, the biggest stroke that I have seen in a stock case is 12MM and at times, that is too big for the factory cases.

I am thinking the bottom end "hit" of the larger stroke will overcome the engines' increased mass.
