Well I thought I few weeks ago , was going to be the last run on this Blown up junk motor ,But my Buddy took My Action for a ride last week to MIAMI so I wanted to run it again with a New prop ,
My Action Runs 90 all day with the blown motor Big deal, But I wanted or we all wanted to try and blow it up and see whats its really got , 1st run 90 mph Big deal .. 2nd Run 100 ? 29 srx ... 3rd run 108 30 small ear chopper ? So with that being said I feel that Beteewn us 3 guys the Boat is running 94 to 96 mph Because I could Feel it pulling hard with the 30 And I am really Happy With that (I mean Its a blown Motor) Real GPS speed again in the morning to Put this motor to bed .But Where or what Do I do now ? Motor is Maxed out at 7000 rpm's ?
There a Video I hope rick will post it some time soon A flawless Pass ......

Thats not a blown up motor. Probably a warn out ring and down on compresion in one hole. Every motor I ever blew up (wich is more than I can remember) quit running at wide open throttle and had rods stuck through the block with windows big enough to see through the other side. Foley has a pic of one of them;)

And i tried to turn a 15x32 on my 225 promax but that didn't work too well. Only got up to mid 80's and about 6200rpm. But I got a 14.5x32 lined up for my next experiment. Last time i was bouncing on the llimiter with a 14.5x30 @92mph. So the 32 should hopefully put me where I need to be.
And I ran out of gas at the dock. That's what I get for thinking my brand new fuel gauge wasnt working right.
Rick did your motor come around?

Was that video yesterday? Man, seems like you guys got lucky! Everytime I've been to Markham there's been a swarm of jet skis. Are there certain days that are better than others? I'd like to come out there and see some runs.

Motor thats on there Now today Its a 1992 2.5 200, The Highest cylinder it 75 psi Lowest is 60 psi ...No one Can Understand (and my self) How and why this motor runs so good .. We tried to throw the rods Out ..
dazing.. Jetski's are at the front most of the time .. Going to the north of the park and run,
The 90 mph is in under 1/2 mile run and its all day .. I was going to try a new GPS today But its raining .. Real Numbers with old motor and New motor...will be posted soon ,
Oh Yea And Chaz you are Fired , I ran out of gas again , This is like the 10th time , Thanks for the tow Rick
Young William,
We'll make it easy on ya. You can take us both out to lunch at the same time ... :rolleyes:
Just a hint, Ifin ya put more than ten dollars worth of gas in it at a time, chance are you'll not run out for the eleventh time ... ;)
Hey btw, I was thinkin about buyin a small tunnel ... anyone know anything about this one ... ???

Frank rode with me while Billy tried to blow his chit up, and it cut out while he was with me also. We think the VST is running dry. was gonna rip it apart yesterday, but decided to keep the wife happy, and work on the house instead. Will get to it next weekend. We were wonderin' what happened to ya. I may just have to start carrying fuel jugs for y'all:reddevil:
