E-mail me the price for the manifold, risers and prop. Wellcraft does not really supply accurate info on these boats so there are some discrepancies. They were made between 93-98. Some came with jets, some with 30 gallon tanks. I am trying to get more info myself. The water comes over the side when you are jumping wakes.

Heres some history on the Scarab Jet Sprint.
The first hull was/is a 16' and had a Jet pump
special designed at Team Scarab in SoCal "I still
owm this boat" and have tested over 12 different
motors, The motor best suited is the Mercury 4.3
90degree V6 because it can use parts from a Small
block.
I have a special built Jet pump and a B&M 164 Blower
one it.
Wellcraft Made the hull a 18' with the Jet pump for the stunt show at Universal Studios in Orlando Lagoon.
These boats were setup with the stock Volvo V6 but were
quickly upgraded to the 4.3.
I never worked at Wellcraft and Left Team Scarab in 2000
Email me for photos and I will see what I have.

I have a 1996 Scarab Sprint with the 4.3 and Alpha 1. I just purchased it recently and can't find much info on it. The 4.3 has an Edelbrock performer manifold and a 600 cfm Edelbrock 4 Barrel Carb. Is this stock? What kind of speed should I expect? Any Ideas on props?
