Jackstand's $2,500 BIG BLOCK Jet Boat Makes a Miraculous Recovery After Finding BAD Engine Damage!! 

HELL YEAH BROTHER

Hell yeah brother! More boat stuff!

Love to see James and George working together!

Lol

Hell yeah

Unless that's the block dump and it doesn't have an out of hull flow. Can easily be re routed

I wish!

Hahahhhaha

Let's go, got them bald eagles now!

🤣🤣🤣

Throw a 6 speed on it

Siiii

It's definitely hard to beat the sound of a Big Block Chevy

No doubt. Jet boat > weed wacker outboard

@@pw383426 you've obviously never heard a 2 stroke 2.5 Mercury offshore outboard then. It gives a big block a run for it's money.

@@ryanturnerboles they sound good but the big block sounds like thay on or off shore lol

They better fix up the boat after the challenge because it's the most awesome part to come out of all this.

@@peterandersson4243 Would be sick to see them make a full build out of the boat. big blower..

agree!

It's a tunnel, and Finney is one of their friends. That boat could be a 9 second rocket one day!

Always has room for nitrous

😂😂 right

Rules have been stretched 😂

The owner of that boat probably rolled over in the grave when he heard how much they sold it for

@@patrickr2686 the mans worst nightmare was his wife selling his toys for what he told her he paid for them lol

Water through the stacks is for safety(what's that?). To keep passengers from burning arms and legs getting in the boat. Only reason this boat needs to run wet is to keep the towline/ski rope from getting burnt.....

@@ajwilson605 noise also! The water muffles the sound..

It’s just to keep the headers from turning blue. Even though it has water going through them they will burn you arm and melt ski ropes.

@@ajwilson605 Just put a metal leader on the rope, solves that problem..

@@billallen4793 That's why I don't have a radio in my Race/Street car. I do not want it quiet I love to hear the song from the .730/.760 solid roller🎶👂💯😊.

For sure, it's the best thing to come out of this challenge. Have them fix it up afterwards (without the budget limit) and then see what it can do.

@@peterandersson4243 😂🤣😂 oh god!!! I can see it now. Twin turbo V8!! Lmfao

@@jbw5485, with nitrous of coarse!

Don’t forget to add meth, just for schiz n giggles 😁

@@Hoaxer51 absolutely

i thing we have a second series idea now :)

(Next time)

Believe he’s doing that on motion race works channel

I support this 100%

Agreed!

Ole cleeter senses it coming and cuts him off when he gets going 🤣

Agreed. Like on Precision Transmission. Check them out

Exactly what I was thinking

Exactly

I disagree

Let them GLOW!!!

@@pauledwards9416 ok you have that freedom, explain how they wont be fine on a boat but survive daily on street cars around the world that are not in the open air.

Ahh but would you expect any less from ol Jackson Jimmy. He is the living incarnation of the saying, go big or go home. 😂

Yea, the competition runs deep in that guys blood!

lol

🥔🥔🥔🥔 riiiip 🥔🥔🥔

@@WhuDhat 🤣😂🤣

i loved seewing him lmao good ol jackstand jimmy!

Don’t they still have a 632 from toast laying around? Lol

Did you guys not see what happened to the last blueprint 632? It made like one trip at summer nights if you want to call it one trip and blew up.

@@eric63377 thats cause they dont really build those for boost or the application they were using it for. That motor would remain N/A for the time being since they'd prob just replace the one that's currently in it so they wouldn't have to do a bunch of work and the downtime would be minimal

@@dustynwilliams7816 id hope so cause thatd be perfect just a solid n/a setup to throw in once they pull that hunk of junk out of there

So glad he ditched Cooper. Guy was a fun vacuum …. He’s just spending the day with white lizzo

@@cristoffeemons1553 You know that they are still friends? Just because he does not appear in his videos does not mean cleetus ditched him

@@Thommpsen who cares …

@@Thommpsen don't feed the trolls🤦‍♂️ Waste of time

Just a few dudes with a shared hobby they love, and time to do it.

I wish he would join the shop and be in on the shenanigans.

Agreed, 100% don't need that. Nothing but problems.

And the water act like muffler too but who really care

@@fast97z24 Look up "water injected headers" and you'll see the little pieces welded onto each pipe where you clamp on a hose. What it's supposed to do is continuously inject a very small amount of water, and the exhaust pressure turns it into a mist, constantly coating the inside of the headers to keep them cool. The only reason to do it is for chrome or painted headers, so they stay looking nicer for longer. Jackstand's problem is they are putting in too much water, which is draining into the cylinders causing worse performance, and as Cleetus noticed, slowly getting into the oil as well.

@@AceEverett, thanks, that’s the best explanation I’ve heard about wet exhaust.

Also, if your cam has a lot of overlap and the reversion brings cold water onto the hot exhaust valves, (after a hard pull) they will snap off.

Dont see why they would even bother. I never run water through my windsor jetboat it just took the chrome off an made them blueish looks more badass now lol

Yeah its just for cooling the exhaust right??? I don't even understand why that would be needed on a boat with inverted performance headers. The only reason they put them on stock boats is because the engine is crammed into a little compartment that is barely bigger than the motor and shit gets mad hot. Not really a problem with inverted headers sticking right up in the wind path

@@fucksusanwojcicki good theory, but wrong. Headers go up on boats for a reason, but it's not because of lack of space ✌️

@@richfox8751 why then?

@@krocketonboost5236 if I remember correctly from the b is for build boat, its to do with the waterline so that water doesn't flow in when the engines off

@@camden2941 No, flappers are what keeps water out of exhaust when they are below the water lines. Headers on jet boats are primarily for looks and because the transom is too short to make a good exit spot for exhaust and have good flow from the pipes.

He said he reached out to him on before he bought the red boat.

Hit up deez nuts Sorry

bro he said he did at the beginning of the challenge he definitely in contact. Im sure fin is patiently waiting foe these vids too!!

His first tip might be to change the damn oil.

Great idea. A 60 foot tail always helps in races

Taal.

Haha they should make a shirt of that with a engine blowing up or sum

Trooper's a great band

@@Brayan-rm6ti definitely, was gonna say the same thing.

Any rear bumper falls under that category as well for Mr jackstand

He does on motion raceworks channel

We have only been asking for this for a couple years now.

@@jakep5121 thanks, I’ll have to check em out

Tip of the day: Don’t eat yellow snow.

@@UNCLEBGA, you should write a song around those words!

You're not allowed to run injected headers in a closed engine bay. When there's an engine cover, you're required to run jacketed exhaust.

@@earlbrown Did I say that? I sad exhaust manifold, not header.

I was gonna say , those arent jacketed manifolds those are just headers .. you dont run water through headers ..

just gonna start saying im not boat guy. im a car and off road guy. but i was wondering are we sure its just to cool the headers?? i dont see a radiator anywhere on that boat and i feel like its to also cool the motor as a whole. like with the few jet skis and boats ive worked on none had a sweet ass v8 powering them but the water always cooled the engine. but at the same time it kinda cooled the exhaust as well because thats where the now used hot water was dumped after it cycled through to cool the engine. pretty sure all that water is being cycled completely through the engine before being dumped into the headers cooling it all off as a whole. but like i said im a car guy i might be wrong feel free to tell me if i am.

@@JamesDean-yo8wm the jet pump supplies the engine with cooling water then dumps it. The entire lake is the radiator. You have to put a valve on it to slow down the flow of water so it doesn't run too cool as speed. Injecting water into the headers is to keep them from getting too hot and potentially causing a fire. it also acts as a legal muffling device.

No doubt lol

No they're basically dirt bikes, or maybe quads. All that river "trail" riding they do HELLA reminds me of being out on my bike running single track in the woods. Makes me want one SOOOOOO badly

I disagree

@@pauledwards9416 Lighten up, Francis.

The good ol days. We never ran water through our headers. Then again we was part of the race boat crowd. Dry stacks, shorties, zoomies.

Based on her behavior just in the videos she has appeared in, she is literally the perfect woman

They are like special episodes of top gear but with Florida men! 😂🌴

I think he means he's gonna blow it up and upgrade the engine. Maybe add a nitrous kit.

Toast old motor swap?

That boat ain't goin NOWHERE.... I think if the jet drive is good, she is gonna be a future build. Such a cool boat he scored !!!

@@supajap07 "maybe a nitrous kit"? It's James' boat, it's weird he didn't already slap a bottle under a seat lol

@@adammealey6721 hell yeah that thing looks sweet!

That or just don’t run water to the headers all together

What is the point of water in the exhaust?

@@IamR3D88 cooling the exhaust

IamR3D88 cooling and muffle the sound

Nonononooooo Marine cams are different from auto cams everyone that’s why he’s sucking water. Exhaust lobe on a marine cam is smaller so they don’t open so much because if it was the same as a car it would suck water.

I`v never had a jet boat , but my understanding that the water was also to cool the headers also ??

@@88s10Durango Yeah, to keep the chrome looking pretty , but it really does lessen the noise. Since this one's not running Mirror like chrome you could run it with little or no water and probably up the HP a tad. IMHO

@@88s10Durango it does, but it's purpose is sound deadening. Granted, the sound difference would be akin the difference between a 747 taking off and a F4 Phantom on full afterburner - but it really does make a difference.... that said, in this case, turn the water off to the manifolds.

@@doccyclopz 100% . the difference in temp is it will take .02 seconds to 1st degree burn with the water v. .01s without.

I wondered why there was water going directly into the headers ... turn it off , not needed ... like James said ... it's not here for a long time , it's here for a good time ...

I said it with out even thinking about it. It just rolls off the tongue. I know I'll be saying it all the time now.

Lol

You're describing water jacketed headers, not water injected headers. He should have a spring loaded check valve in there that shuts off the water flow at idle. And only misting them under load. They never need to be fully opened to work correctly.

Read earls comment….

It has a vacuum advance diaphragm on his new dizzy but it's not connected to vac

@@zxggwrt it has nothing to do with overall timing. Actually, it doesn’t need vac. Advance in that setup. Cam’s too choppy.

I don't think these guys need any advice on tuning engines but thank you for the input

@@kmonroe5785 Apparently they do since James didn’t add any zinc to the oil. That is a straight up beginner mistake.

@@kmonroe5785 and thanks for input..?? 🤔

Jackstand: How you feeling, George? George: Potato Potato Potato Potato Potato *KAPOW* Potato Potato Potato

Yaaaa I noticed that too

I just said the same thing. After it was all put back together he said I might do an oil change. That oil with all that water in it will wipe out that cam and lifters in minutes. Especially with the quality of crap components we have these days.

He put that cam in dry lol

Yup commented as well. They used to roller cams.

But.... There are boats... They can do car crap in the winter because Florida stuff...

@@tinncan ehh

Pretty sure James took it and put it in his drift car

@@BuffaloBilliam nah that's Donnie's old short block that is in James' S14.
