Custom/Hybrid What engine should I put in a Superfreak

[jet rider]

I just picked up a -2 glass Superfreak Badass . It's mostly for surf riding but since it's capable of FW flips then why not. My son and I weigh 150 and 180. I want it very reliable since its a ten minute ride to the surf.
So I'm looking for options and opinions on this. I have a 701 waveraider engine that I can send to group K to make an 845 or buy a jet maniac engine 718/735/760. My budget is around 2 grand. I guess a want the most reliable power for the best price. What do you guys think?

unless you put a monster motor in there and have some pretty good flat water skill, you arent going to flip a -2 glass freak. freaks are great but there are hulls that do flip easier.

I've never had a JetManiac motor but from what I've heard and read they are the best bang for the buck with out losing reliability.

Has anyone run the group k 845 setup?

Ride the 701 around for bit until that new 960 cast top end is complete and drop that sucker in , sounds like it will be a great setup. 2300 for the top end then a bit extra for the case porting. If i had around 2g to spend it would be on that.

why not setup the new true performance powervalve stock stroke? get some cases and a good oem replacement crank. unless your looking to get one like yesterday. i think im going to try one in mine once all the testing is done on the manufacturers stand point.

 

[jet rider]

When are either of the two just mentioned above going to be available?

 

[ProSouth]

Same one I'm talking about. Look up the thread "affordable power........ It's coming". Good read. Power valve nikasil coated cylinders Stock stroke is a 963. Able to use 62t cases.

or wait for the true Performance motor to come out..... or give Jetworks a call. Art is fairly close to you.

You should chat with Art from Jet Works. He is a great engine builder and always has good prices. He is also somewhat local for you. (Santa Ana) http://www.jetworksperformance.com/

you should just run a 701 so you can get used to the hull and feel the handling difference between it and a sj

Well I didn't buzzkill it by over clamping it, so no.
