Looking to make my Sanger faster!!!

I bought this Sanger last summer and it has been very reliable for me.im guessing it does between 55 and 60 mph it has not been gps'd but now I am ready for more speed I'm wondering the easiest way to get more out of it! Right now I'm running a mild 455 with a berk jg and no diverter or droop any info would be greatly appreciated.im new to the jet boat world and don't really even know where to start.Also what kind of numbers are these boats safely able to achieve with say a blown bbc pushing around 750hp I'd eventually like to be pushing the 100mph mark is my danger capable of that?

I am no expert but start with the pump and put a chevy in it!!

I dont know where you live, but contact John at Big A performance at 1-423-745-9667 and he will do you right and is a master when it comes to pumps and speed. He can do engines also and put all the power in it you want and push your pump to match the motor for top speeds. He is a great guy to talk with for all the help you need.

I'm located in central ca.eventually I will be running a blown bbc I'm buying off a friend but until the funds are together I am stuck with the olds.so I'm more looking at ways to get mine faster with my current set up.also how fast the sangers are capable of safely. Thanks for any input

Have your pump blueprinted and impeller cut to match your hp curve of the motor.

Blowers add weight, just sayin

Yes mine is a super jet I tried to upload some pics from my phone but they are to large.im only 21 and new to the whole jet boat scene don't really know where to even start.i have read about hook and rocker but never actually dealt with it so not to sure what to look for .but from what I have been hearing it sounds like my first place I need to go is the pump.thanks guys for all the helpful knowledge.

And yea the motor is pretty mild I don't really want something I have to work on everytime I take it out .theres a few guys I see a everytime they are out there wrenching the whole time and that's not what I want mine gets used atleast 4 or 5 times a month seeing as how I live 5 minutes from lake kaweah so I want something reliable but stil pushing big power.thanks again

Talk to Glen Schuler at Pleasure Boat Specialies in San Jose (408) 432-0217. Tell him Donny sent you.

Is there anyone a little closer than San Jose more like Fresno or Bakersfield San Jose is almost 4 hours from me and my tow vehicle is a lifted 74 gmc it would cost a small fortune to get my boat up there haha.also as far as blue printing what all does that entail I'm fairly mechanically inclined and would like to do most the work myself is it possible for me to do it from home ?

So for an update I was able to look at the boat today and it's a 12jb-a pump.i crawled under the boat and looked into the intake for the jet and the impeller is trash it's got tons of chips and nicks out of every blade so it definatley needs to be gone through how do I decide which impeller to get..my 455 is a mild build just flat top pistons mild cam edelbrock performer intake with a Holley vac secondary 600cfm carb Thanks for any help guys

Yes you can do most of it your self at home. If you run into trouble I am pretty close.
