ok. thanks for the links.. i looked and could not find those parts at tower.. i will fix the pull start and use a belt to start it. that wy the pull start is a backup.. my vegas came airborne and dove underwater!! it disapeared for about 3 seconds and i thought for sure that it wsa gone!! then it floated back up and was totally full of water.. i use 2 auto bailers on my vegas, one where the stock rubber plug was at and another on the other side.. i raised the strut some and it helped a lot, i think i can still go further.. i also ported the header, shortened the tuned pipe, added a header cooler, removed the head shim, added a grim racer turn fin, sharpened and polished the rudder, and removed the tail; fin.. seemed to pick up the speed quite a bit!! i also cut out the rear of the canopy(turbine). i have been debating on blueprinting the hull.. is it worth doing?? and how is it done?? i also have a 3 blade prop on the way.. should i call aquacraft to see if they will cover the pullstart under warranty?? boat is about a month old..
