Posted: 30/Jul/2010 at 8:31pm

i have a heavily ported 760 which was , in my opinion running a little hot, and without a large pump core, the water coming out the p*sser was hot! i dual cooled it and its seems to be running slightly cooler which i'm happy about. 
 
i ski with a guy with a 701/head/b pipe, all set up the same and his is way hotter than mine! the way it steams when you take off the hood is concerning and thats without a flow control valve!
 
i have another mate running an all singing ported 760 with a type 9/tbm/dual cooling and 40 horses of nitrous and his engine is quite cool to touch!

Forgot to mention that Oggy (and plenty of others) has been using a TBM pump cone for 3 years on two different 760's and neither of them run too hot.

I think if dual cooling was needed TBM would have it on thier website or in the instructions.

I hate to see people spending money on skis they don't need to or for the wrong reasons so here are my guidlines based on 20 years experience and not on theory.
Stock stroke freestyle skis do not need dual cooling unless they run certain drypipes.
Freestyle skis with stroker engines would be better with dual cooling due to the higher piston speed.
If a stock stroke engine with a B pipe is overheating there is a problem somewhere, dual cooling may stop it overheating but the problem will still be there.
There are other reasons to play around with dual cooling but you don't need it if your engine is stock stroke with a B pipe, save your money and spend it on petrol.

The lifters are fine as a stop gap before fitting footholds. I had lots of fun with mine and they work well for getting to grips with doing bigger jumps by being able to lift up the back of the ski.
I used a contact adhesive we had at work and it worked fine but they do come off after a while. the stuff for the hydro turf might work but i would try to find something stronger (and I guess water resistant).
 
But, if you your not fitting footholds right away side lifters are a great idea for a while but in the end you will fit footholds..
