Well I have a 750sx and am wanting to build a sj. Wanting to buy a sn hull and part everything together. Thinking about doing a 760 motor and get port work done. http://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/boa/2790597199.html what do you guys think of this motor and price? Also looking for a hull let me know if you have one. This will be a flatwater setup.

Your best bet is finding a 701 and boring and porting that. They run about the same price, sometimes a few bucks cheaper. That 760 isn't going to have quite the punch down low like you want for freestyle but will have a lot better top end, which people want normally for running buoys. There was recently a thread describing exactly the differences in the 3 motors, and the 64x, 61x/62t were included. I'll find it for ya.

That craigslist seller is BS. Yamaha doesn't sell crate motors.
Your best bet is to buy a complete SJ and just sell the 750. It's a whole lot cheaper to buy one complete than it is to piece one together. You can pick up a decent SN SJ for around $1000 or less. You'd be looking at close to $2-3k if you bought that motor and then pieced it all together.
