Nothings set in stone yet, but plans are a dry sumped p-pump 4.5 stroker. Taking it one step at a time tho. Gonna be heading to the local cummins dealer in the next couple weeks when i have free time to order my crank.

What kinda water jet you have there? Pressure, hp, bevel cuts?

Its a Techjet TJ1500 X-2. Has a 3'x5' cutting area; 6" max cutting thickness; 60,000max psi.

Its only 3 axis, so no bevel cutting.

Forget our pump details but it runs @ 55,000psi

We got a good deal on it so couldnt pass it up, only been running it about 5-6months. And already out growing it lol.


I dont know a whole lot about it. I do more welding, mill and lathe work. Only time i touch the jet is for my own use when its down for a few hours....Hence why i havent update this with more pics yet, waiting to jet out my girdle and the rest of my oil pan.
