98 XC update - dig into the 770

[@coryernewein]

That purple and blue🤤 makes me wanna start tinkering with my snow pony and take it from stock

[@dubiousf00d]

I use amsoil in everything I have. Works great..yes a little spendy, but peace of mind is worth it to me..as well as supporting local stuff. They're 3.5 hrs from my house lol.

[@coryernewein]

I run a little extra oil (Shell synthetic) in my fuel tank...plugs are cheap if they foul🤙

[@jamesfmforce6790]

Important to note forged piston run larger piston to wall than cast pistons.

[@johnhicks735]

You can put sleeves in those cylinder walls for each cylinder.

[@jeremymullen5378]

🔥right on man that 700 u putting in sled looks mint. Sweet looking domes and head. Me and buddy’s always joked with that oil name, first u get a miss then a Tik finish with a boom lol. I hear ya tho, prices are just getting out of control.. I’ve been running shell synthetic for years in all my saws, bikes, and sleds, never let me down🔥👊🔥🏍🔨⚙️

[@johnhicks735]

Usually in those if it has its own separate oil fill plug for that alone. Whatever type of oil that maybe to.

[@johnhicks735]

I'd add in some coolant as in antifreeze into the radiator on that snowmobile engine to if it's liquid cooled engine set up design for sure though. That's most likely your issues.& Problems with it then.& Possibly the carb.,or carbs still to acting up on it as well to.

[@darianjeske7933]

Well that sucks,makes 2 of us with sleds that need top ends,my 95 440 sks with 3500 on it also needs a top end which sucks but that's part of the life keeping old sleds alive. Thanks for the awesome video cant wait for the next one

[@prostockultra5722]

When that comes apart, it may be a good idea to verify cylinder wall to piston clearance is in spec, if the crank bearings are fine 😉

[@prostockultra5722]

Ope. Yep definitely need that worked on 😅

[@johnhicks735]

I'd check the piston con rod bearings out for play in them. They could be worn out to. Along with your piston oil rings to.

[@jasperblake5077]

Garret: Man all my sleds keep blowing up, I wonder why?
Also Garret: TWIN PIPES OR BUST🤑
Jokes aside I love your content man👍

[@johnhicks735]

Yes it would man.

[@johnhicks735]

Check the price on redline.,or some Valvoline TWC-3 2 cycle motor oil.& Add some zinc powder additives into it at home instead it's way cheaper that way on you to man. If it's A 2 stroke engine gasoline fuel mixture setup. The crank case uses different oil though.

[@johnhicks735]

Piston rod pins where you put in those retainer clips in at to connect the pistons to the con rods. Witch should be called con rod pins I believe.

[@johnhicks735]

Replace those bearings their to loose inside of the pins area.

[@larrywarner9314]

Klotz, maxima , amsoil, any name brand 2 stroke oil is salty no matter where you live Garrett, I tried this subzero made by VP racing and it's not bad oil I bought 5 gallons of it $175 plus shipping but great deal $35 a gallon

[@darrylmarbut47]

Forged pistons need waay more clearance, probably not as bad as it seems..

[@AKproXR]

Those are just off the shelf Yamaha PWC pistons, nothing fancy.

[@brandonlanglais]

Man I have to ask where did you learn all this stuff nice video🤘

[@nikosavo]

mystik is very good i run it in my bikes boats sleds everything for years its 30 usd or so for a gallon

[@johnhicks735]

Those bearings could just be shot out inside causing your eating up your oil rings up inside of that engine.

[@jeffalleshouse9783]

Yep amzoil down lower mich 63$ g.i run klotz if its cheap sometimes 50$ fallon but mystic good stuff 35$ .

[@ssnthe10s]

I thought I was on Shanes channel at first...

[@Richard_Frost]

Hey bud, just wondering, what's needed to convert a stock 99 style non-ves 700 into one of these 770's? Based on what you were saying, it sounds like it was just the standard 700 crank and case, with 800 pistons and cylinders right? Cause you said it's basically an 800 but with a 700 stroke?
Does it require programming the CDI for the timing? Or could you theoretically just slap a set of 800 cylinders and pistons on it and have essentially a 770?

[@adamg1550]

I do believe your fuel filter is in upside down

[@coryernewein]

After sleeving those cylinders how would you sleeve them? Or would you get them coated?

[@SwampDonkey530]

Technical shit… now let’s get brapppn!!

[@AKproXR]

Need more snow!

[@alaskarailroad3996]

The big blocks do have a bit of rattle at idle.. however I'm sure you know what is normal and what is to much. My 05 700 has a bit at idle and it has 2,000 original miles on it. Give it a bit of throttle and it goes away.

[@AKproXR]

Yes more often then not they rattle a bit at idle.
My 800 does for sure, but this is considerably worse.

[@traceanderson4010]

I'm a amzoil fan boy I run it in all of my stuff I grew up watching my dad buy it so it's the only oil I use

[@Polaris91rxl]

Yo i see you have a PSI head there, i am currently in search of 86mm pistons for psi pistons in my 925 PSI Genisus and im trying to find out who can make me a couple pistons, weisco requires 12 pistons minimum and i dont wanna fork out 2500 bucks and sell the other 10 on ebay, sounds like to much work.. you or anyone know where i can find a couple?

[@larrywarner9314]

Id send them to Millennium technology with the size pistons your going to use and have them replated to spec and you'll be good

[@AKproXR]

Sleeved bores not plated

[@aaronshriver7526]

Show us the case mods or cylinder mods needed to put the 800 cylinders on the 700 cases.
Thanks

[@flyin427ford]

You don't, they are bored, sleeved and ported 700 cyl

[@ED--wh8zt]

Dial caliper cough cough not a micrometer

[@bryan7866]

I am by no expert, but in my HTG 1200 it has 84mm pistons in it, piston to wall clearance is just like that like identical I don't have any motor issues with it .. your other 800s arent like that? i kind of thought it was more clearance due to larger piston .. more volume expanding so it needs more clearance

[@AKproXR]

.15-.19 is spec, this is way out of spec at .245

[@jason9679]

What kinda heads on that twin 700 anodized dome auqua in collar I have 1996 xlt with same domes

[@AKproXR]

Legend racing thunder domes

[@MidnightPolaris800]

I run that oil your now running. Have been for years. Whyd your friend give it away

[@AKproXR]

Because he was tired of me running amsoil lol and he has a ton of it.

[@MidnightPolaris800]

@@AKproXR nice

[@lasseanti6084]

Hp rating with the 770 kit?

[@AKproXR]

With the right pipes 165~ on pump gas.
140 or so on a stock single pipe.
