[QUOTE="BigTerp, post: 326294, member: 9169"] Theres a few pictures in my build thread. Nothing to detailed though. It's exactly the same as a prop drive motor except for the lower end. The lower end is pretty simple and straight forward, IMO. Basically there are no gears. A impeller is driven directly by the drive shaft which pulls in water through the jet pump and shoots it out the back. Heres a pretty good explanation and diagram. https://www.trouttandsons.com/Jet_Units/Jet_Units.html I'm putting one on my boat because the portion of the river I run is very shallow. We do a lot of waterfowl hunting and most of our hunting holes are accessed through shallow areas. My buddy and I got the motor to the point of starting last night. Turned it over a few times and the compression sounds awesome. Just need to get some new fuel lines and she'll be ready to start!! Get some pics up of your boat/motor. I'm curious to see it!!
