My wb1 owner, few questions?

I just bought my first waveblaster. its a 1993 with 61x top and bottom.
Its has a riva red pipe, dual carbs and other stuff.

Does the waterbox look factory, its aluminum?
Does the head look factory?

Just thought I would throw in a pic of all my current skis

The water box is from Factory Pipe, the head is a stocker painted. Dual 38 carbs not stock from that motor.

Re: My wb1 owner, few questions?

Dual 44's means thats an R&D intake manifold. Sell the dual setup and go back to the single on the 61X

Re: My wb1 owner, few questions?

Well it has 4 studs on the each carb, so they are 44's? Is it better to run a single carb on a 61x?

Well ,since you already have that set-up, I would just leave it. If you had a single and wanted to go to duals on the 61x, I wouldn't spend the money for just a little, little more hp.
