Here is another: Nice and innocent looking isn't it? (I am still Doo at heart, don't worry&#33

Sled Dogg: The sled is pretty much on the lake all winter long, but not that you couldn't run it in the woods. We get 3 good months of ice on Secord (It is controlled by dam and Wolverine Power Co) and they can make more ice than a natural lake. By letting the dam close during the week, it will flow water on top and will freeze more ice quicker. We had over 28" of ice on the track last year, had to use a auger extension to ice fish.

Kim does a great job, very common sense tuner. He has allot of different aproaches than most ($$$ does not mean HP) and the motor is no more exotic than the set of $250 used pipes on it now. Other than that and Vforce2, it is all over the counter parts, good porting, and time. I bet Kim has under $1500 into the whole thing, but he has allot of hours. Can't wait to see the "new" ice sled coming to a lake near you this winter!

That is very,very good numbers (and that dyno does read low)
See if you can get me some dyno time this year & cost.
We can make a long weekend out of it.

Kim has yet to charge just dyno time, everything has been turn key. When a guy comes and wants some perf. work, he pulls the motor to find out where it was when he started, and when he is done to know where it ended up.

They should have no prob. with people wanting to do dyno pulls, I will ask him when I get back from chicago. I would guess it is part of the marina's hourly rate to hook it up, and then flat amount for pulls.

Dave,

Are those Stock Clutch's stock on that ZeRT as well?

It's just has a plain ol' 108EXP with Wahl forged spider, heel clickers, and a Cat 2ndary.

I recieved Land@Sea's info packet and had the opportunity to look it over...I didn't have any idea there was so many different tests and add ons that were available for there product...this looks like something every serious R@D enthusiast needs to have...Now how do I explain...no how do I convince my wife that I really need this instead of buying a new sled...any suggestions (Ha-Ha)...Al.

Yes, our asphault sled (97 ZRT 800) pulls 127ft. lbs. HP is 202 @9400. It is like a diesal pickup though, pulls 110+ft lbs from 8300-9500.[/b][/quote]
Curious but what does a STOCK 800 ZRT or even Thunder Cat
come in at in the torque area? That just sounds like a ton
of torque.

Sled Dogg · 09-10-2002, 05:42 PM

Stock torque isn't remotely close to that Mike. For those pipes and cylinders that is tons. they have that thing twisting for sure. More amazing is that they are still turning the rpms.

Stock TCat is around 105-107 ft. lbs.

I sure have enjoyed this summer on the asphault, got to learn more about sleds this summer than at all in years past.

I am lucky to have someone like this to talk to and work with.

The 1st weekend in Feb (as in every year) there will be a "run wht ya brung" grudge racing for GOOD HUMORED people who want to have a good time on Secord. The Bar comes over and cooks BBQ chicken on the lake, all weekend long. Think about it, and make plans if you would like.

A good stock one 96~98 area, off the top of my head.

I have found the old 108's to shift harder than most new OEM clutchs. My Yamahas and Cats have 108's on them.
