Who says they hit the head?? You just need a first gen SBN carb... and it's a bolt on project. (You need the type that has the 3 bolt air-box flange)

This carb Mikuni Carburetor 38mm Super BN PWC will not replace stock oem applications without modifications. High performance carburetors with extended throttle throttle shaft. A featured needle valve to provide optimum pop-off and a primer type cold start system ( no butterfly choke) to increase air flow. Carb Spec'sLow Speed 65 High Speed 107.5 Needle Valve 2.0 Spring Grams 115. Primer kit required. Note this carb will not work on 1989-1991 SeaDoo's that came with the Round Body type carb due to the larger size of this carb as it will hit the cylinder.

The link won't open. BUT... just get the seadoo carb. (not the after market) I've personally done that swap, and I know it will work.

Here you go. This is a SBN that will bolt onto your 90 or 91 Sp.
