V8 turbo ski new engine

  • The v8 ski 6.0L Lq4 "Ls" engine broke down. And all does not got to plan installing the new (used) gen 3 Chevy small block into the v8 turbo beast. As I contend with my own idiosyncrasies while attempting to install a new engine into the v8 turbo jetski. The v8 ski is a constant cycle of rebuild, test, break, and repeat. Maybe I am crazy?

    I love that this project started as a “Can it be done?” sort of a deal and thankfully didn’t stop there! It has been so fun to see the different iterations, failures and learning opportunities that have come from the build process.
    Keep it up please!

    I found out that all aluminum 5.3l LS engines used are about $2,000 average in Central Pennsylvania this year. I was like woah??? Had no idea. Last one I had was in a 2005 GMC Yukon XL and it was an awesome engine!

    Gday Josh,
    We use to have a Fastlane 40 down here in Oz with two 454’s, Merlin Heads and associated fruit. We pretty much went everywhere at full noise and went through our fair share of engines. Got pretty good at swapping them out. 😁
    I know the feeling of spinning a bearing due to low oil pressure. We had the boat fully loaded with the fam and gear for a weekend over at the island. I had accidentally knocked the throttle to fairly wide open on one of the engines (out of gear). Sure enough, started with a lot of noise, (sounded great) then knock, knock, knock. “Sorry fam, we’re going home”, engine out, strip down etc. Aggggh! 😁
    Your new engine sounds sweet. Looking forward to what next year brings.
    Wishing you and all the fam a great happy and safe Xmas and all the very very best for the new year,
    Cheers 🍻

    • @JetSkiBrothers
      @JetSkiBrothers  8 місяців тому

      I believe it got water in the engine when the line came off the turbo. It was in there spraying like a fire hose. Any way it has better water separation on the engine ventilation now to help if that situation happens again.
