ps i know a guy on the dock who will mod it cheaper than most and he has a great reputation on there his names Butch T (NOT THE BOATMAN) PM me if you want his email.basiclyy he will mod a cylinder to close to a full mod for $60 ish or he will sell you a modded cylinder for $100 to just bolt on.You could email him to find out his price for an absolute full mod including lightened piston etc.

Hey Wally,

Ya think the 78 mph sprint cat runs had anything to do with that decision?:D

JakeDW 09-07-2008 09:57 AM

Steve was a nice guy explained every thing he was gona do to the motor with a new carb ,work on the carb full mod shipping 290 that is a great price and I would say the vid shows it will run hard with the rite set up of corse.Was told the same motor went 82 in a diffent cat ,hello

Jake

RE: who to send zen to for full mod?
 
Good choice you will love that motor ;),that 82 mph you talk about was in Wallys old boat i believe which was heavier than the new one HELLO :D.Im gonna stick my neck out and predict this new one will hit 84-85 mph once he gets the thing set up and the right prop ;).
Mart
ps no pressure Wally ;)

RE: who to send zen to for full mod?
 
if I take my rigger's turn fin off, it would run 5-6 more miles on its 82mph basic of the speed, the lowest drag setup is a big factor to increase the speed, the prop and if you have a high rpm engine too, that's very important, have you guys paid attention on wall's water pick ups and rudder blade?

How can we he hasnt posted any pics of either? the only pics ive seen of his cat had the rudder removed ;),i asume he has flush piccups as hes going for all out speed.
Mart
ps if you take your turn fin off you wont be turning very much just kidding :D

rcboateric 09-07-2008 11:00 AM

RE: who to send zen to for full mod?
 
yes, he's running the flush piccups plus a thin blade from what I can tell in his pictures. I had to use a turn fin, if not, the rigger won't turn normally.

Eric you must have inside infromation because Wally hadnt posted any pics of his rudder blade as i said the picture i saw had rudder removed?.I now notice he has posted the pic maybe you had a sneak preview lol :D.My rudder blade is thinned on the hydro,i could shave with it its so dam sharp [X(].
Mart
ps Wally how long is your rudder blade it looks short did you take some off to reduce drag?.

rcboateric 09-09-2008 07:30 AM

RE: who to send zen to for full mod?
 
mate, a thin blade doesn't have water pickups built in, that's the way you can tell.

martno1fan 09-09-2008 07:53 AM

RE: who to send zen to for full mod?
 
I dont know about that Eric but as i said how did you know? he hadnt posted a pic of his rudder till after you made that coment check his first pics on the other thread no rudder? once again you missinterprated what i said :eek:.As far as i know you cant buy thin blades? im sure you can pay to have them made thinner though.My blade has one piccup and was thinned before i bought it by the guy i got it off.Theres no reason a thin blade cant have a piccup in it ?.

RE: who to send zen to for full mod?
 
Cant say i do because i dont see a rudder :D,ok you mean the pic of it in the water? i cant see that pic clear enough to see wether its got a rudder on let alone piccups.I think you had inside info tell the truth mate :D.
