PMC North America 717 engine

[Rdessewffy]

I have a 95XP and was looking for a couple jugs because I butchered the ones I took off snapping bolts and trying to drill them out. This cool dude I never met offered me a whole engine, so I went and got it with hopes of using the jugs, but turns out it's this PMC engine and they are out of business. Also turns out this motor runs ( I have not ran it myself. Not sure what I'm going to do, but would like to just drop this free one in and see what happens.
For the PMC engine....
The stamp on engine says its an 05.
The stamp on magneto housing says 01.
It's a single carb.
The mounting to hull bracketry is weird.
I haven't dropped it in hull yet, but looks like it measures up right.
Anyone know what this PMC engine is and if I decide to pull it apart and just use the jugs, will they fit on my original 717? If I just use jugs I would want to put my over bored sleeves with pistons in them. Just trying to get some advise before I decide which path to ski down.... thanks in advance.BTW, I hooked it up to a battery charger and it turns over without plugs. I put compression guage on one cylinder and struggles to turn over.

Really have no clue what you have there as the head and cylinder are not Seadoo,

The engine mounts and magneto housing are from the newer 720 skis like the GTI's and yours uses a stamped steel bed plate instead.

Looking into it more the PMC engines were basically Chinese knockoff's of Seadoo and Yamaha engines with horrible quality control and machining. So really bad copies.
