why is groupk so low in the food chain?
If you can swing that ban hammer with much effectiveness, you would have my vote!
swing it, hard, and with a HUGE swath.
PLEASE.
many of the children here, are unable to render factual, and professional input, but yet they continue to cause trouble.
lame.
I think they are well respected, but they have their niche.......... They cater mostly to the Rec Rider..........
LPW, Team Scream, TLR (Out of PWC Work now, mainly 4stroke mx'ers now) and a few others cater mostly to Freestyle Engine Building........ Companies like RIVA, JSU, Watcon, Ultimate Watecraft, Jetworks (they are doing more Freestyle setups now, but have been building some of the best race motors for years) PROTEC, Greater Yamaha , Judge Motorsports specialize in race motor setups........... They can all cross over and do other stuff, but they stick to what they are good at..........
I have never heard anything bad about group K.
that only means, they have never built an engine for anyone on this board.
except for shonuff.
was that your boat I rode at SFF?
it was almost as strong as some of the other boats ive ridden.
Personally I'd go with Chuckie at Team Scream, TJ at Judge Motorsports, or Art at Jetworks mainly because of there backround in racing and years of experience building high performance engines.
The way I say it is if an engine builder can get a race motor to run like hell at WOT and have it scream on the bottom and top then they have to know a thing or two about building and tuning an incredibly POWERFUL and RELIABLE motor.
These 3 have definitely been in the business for a very long time and have built a very solid reputation. If I were to have a race motor built for my blaster then hands down my choice would be TJ, but if I were looking for a killer freeride setup then I would probably go with Chuckie due to the fact that I have met him numerous times(always impressed with his willingness to offer help/advice without any gain for himself) and he is located in my hometown. If Art wasn't out in California I would definitely have to give him some more consideration.

Hmmmm, What motor are you exactly talking about Pete?
The motor I sold you in 04 when you purchased my Blue boat?
That is the only BB of mine that ever went to you. In the fall of 05, we rebuilt it togeather, bored it to 84.5mm & installed a new crank. other than porting a set of cases for you last Christmas, that was the last I touched that motor. You are stating the cyl is now 85mm?
as you have it here with a new Bore, in your for sale thread.

You also have it stated here, that it was rebuilt with 30-40 hours on it before it blew? http://www.x-h2o.com/showpost.php?p=336057&postcount=77
please clarify this for me?
