Trying to find somone to rebuild a motor for me,

Basically its a 1997 Sea Doo SPX with an 800 Rotax motor.

Its not worth mega dollars itself, but the motor is cooked, I dont want to spend more than the entire jet ski is worth on just a motor,

I can get parts out of the US reasonably cheap, but I don't know the first thing about building them.

Can anybody point me in the right direction

Cheers

Email josh@metalcraftmarine.com.au if you want the name of a shop, he is fitting a turbo kit to one now that's just had a full build, should be able to give you the name of the bloke.

yeh asked damo, spoke to fridays as well as west side seadoo,

Problem is, rebuild costs are getting to be more than its worth,

Trying to find a cost effective means, otherwise I may as well just go and buy a runner.
