4-tech complete motor needed

[Ruepappy]

Have a 07 rxp looking for complete 215 drop in. Have 07 motor tore down with many parts to trade or core to swap. Has 100hrs on it. Broke a timing chain.

Ouch, any idea how that happened, something get wedged in the chain? They look a little light to me.

After some research on sites, seems like somewhat of a common flaw. Sea doo bit the bullet on low, low hr units with this problem and replaced motors. Mine, unfortunately had a whopping 105 hrs on it, so I'm screwed. Not too happy! They should allow a bit more clearances so when they let go, the internals aren't destroyed. Oh well, I'm not qualified with my talent to have parts machined and rebuilt to put back together.... Wish I could find someone in the St. Louis, mo area who would like to take this on!

Yes, most all modern engines are now interference type, as a result of emissions requirements.

Here's a 4-tec chain, looks like #35 pitch maybe? Incidentally, the 2nd photo is a link-belt type as opposed to a roller chain. Link-belt is a pretty heavy design probably can't be used at sustained high 8,000 RPM range so I'm sure it's not available for the 4-tec.

We're you able to find a good replacement engine? I'm looking for one as well.
