1996 Challenger ( Fix Or Change ) engine

[mod200]

Hi everyone , my older brother had a 1996 Challenger and he gave it to me last week , last time he used it was 2 years before , i like to work in engines so i did checked the engine and found that there were many parts should be replaced.


anyway i done some search in the local dealers and it seems that they don't have parts for my 1996 Challenger so i found this website :

www.seadoowarehouse.com

but it seems that this website does not support Mastercards from my region so i was trying to contact them to see if they accept Western Union.

if any one would sugguest any thing he is more than welcome to do so.

The Question

sorry i forget to post my question there



should i fix the engine which might cost 1500 $ or would it be better if i just buy a new engine with 110 HP ?


and what is the best way to buy the parts from this website (www.seadoowarehouse.com) ?

'96 challenger has the 110hp engine already. But, replacement engine is only 800 bucks from SBT, so you decide.

seadoowarehouse might not be the best option for intl orders, do a quick web search and there are many online sites that sell seadoo parts.

There is a guy in UAE who has a newer seadoo boat, he may be able to give you some pointers of where to buy parts, sorry I don't remember his login name.

thanks vilord


that was a good pointer for engines (SBT)



i am really thinking in replacing the engine with a 4 stoke engine so do you have any suggestions ?

and i will continue searching the web for spare parts like the steering DIRECTION CABLE and the other parts connected to it

International sales.......

Seadoowarehouse does sale internationally. You'll have to place your order by phone though. They do have an international phone line.

I agree with vilord, if you need an engine, look into SBT.

A 4 stroke in a 96 challenger?.........wow, that would be cool to see. You'll pretty much have to buy a ski or boat though, to transfer EVERYTHING from it into the 96. Then, hope the hull's integrity is strong enough to hold it.
