GOOD OR BADI have one in my boat, put a shoe and loader, flowed mpd imp and bowl, dominator o ring and nozzle reducer, I like it but I guess it is not the hot ticket for big speed.

Blown 472 - How did you do a shoe on the E Pump? How about a picture or two. Was that an MPD mod also? Some bad mouth this pump but it sure is handy to have the hand hole outside the boat!

GOOD OR BAD[/QB]JE is a good pump with easy install for OEM (pump is set by insert mold and intake is part of the laminating schedule). Many shops offer shoes for this unit also loader can be added by pump builders. Not a Race intake yet is "A-OK" for most boaters. When Aggressor started to test our new Impellers and Bowl Designs, we picked up a 20 1/2' ultra "open bow" with a E pump. unit ran 53.7 stock 454 when we finished with it, unit ran 64.7 on the gun. Very respectable for a stock application & ski boat.
Aggressor plans to release in late spring a replacement unit for the E with fins and machined shoe (matching the all dimensional points of installation). In some cases a new pump can be cheaper then a complete re-do.

He has some pix on his web site, I think it is high tech marine, it was last year and alot of brain cells ago. I like it, the boat took a higher set and freeed it up, yup no water in the boat for me.

I am not sure if it will show anything, if you just have a rock grate on there, when you put a loader on it, you should see a speed increase due to more water being packed into the pump.

I've got a 12 je on PUMP 'HER', although it is my first boat so I have nothing to compare it to. we're seeing around 60 mph (not gps). on the tag on the pump it also has a2 after the 12je any comments on that? maybe an updated model or something?

I just finished grafting a Berkeley JG split bowl , impeller and bowl stuffer onto my JE case , The split bowl will permit the use of wedges and maybe a droop snoot or race nozzles ... New JE's come with a split bowl ...

Ok, I have a new one for ya's. My Syndicate Gull Wing has a Berkeley 12JI in it. It is the older model I pump that isn't made anymore, not like the new model I. Built-in nozzle adjust (like a jetovator) and the bucket is operated by the cable HOUSING moving while the cable stays stationary. "A" impellor. Any ideas on how to make this one scoot? It is backed by a 476ci BBC 800hp +/- and I know there's gotta be a way to make it go faster.

Gonna race the CP definitely....and might have the Mrs. racing the Syndicate before long... That's racing with NJBA.
The Syndicate has it's limitations because of the pump issues as stated above.
