I'm looking for a Union Bay head for the 1350 watercraft based triples. If you have one or know of one please PM me. I also need one more UB 900 cylinder and would be interested in any polaris/UB parts. Thanks for any help. Jay
WTB Union Bay 1350 W/C triple head

- Start date
You already talked to Curt at FTXmotorsports.com and Doug Ruth ruthpower.com?
Yes I have. Polarisrocks knows somebody in Washington state that supposedly has an entire engine but the guy moved and he is having trouble finding him. Do you know of any?

Did you try Indy Dan? He is making WC parts now.

No I haven't, I've kinda been thinking of him as an ace up my sleeve if I can't find a UB head. I think Dan can build damn near anything.

What chassis are you going to put this beast in?

Hi Ryan, I'm not sure. First choice would be an IQR, but I don't have one yet, and I'm not putting it in the wifes, this one is for me. Maybe my old '98 700 or I do have that gen 2 chassie in the shop, hell I don't know. I am going to build a 1350, that I can say for sure. I talked to Doug Ruth the other day and the UB 900 BB he is working on for me should be running this winter, thats what I would like to drop in my '98. I've seen some very nice IQR rollers on here but they are all so far away, but for the right one I'm up for a road trip. If I end up in Washington state again I'll look you up and we can go for a beer or something.

Hmmm I think you may have ended up with my ubr 900 stuff, I remember shipping it to Doug, sold it on eBay last year. Small world if so.
I briefly had a ubr 970ish in my iqr two years ago and before I blew it, it was awesome. So zappy!
Good luck with your search! 1350 sure would be nice in that iqr roller with the ve tunnel anger890 is selling.

I did buy your cylinders off ebay last year. I had Doug resleeve them and source pistons, gaskets and a few other parts they were missing. Hopefully those are two of the cylinders that will make up my 1350. I keep collecting parts and someday I might make this happen.

Man, wish I would've seen this sooner. There was a guy selling a whole 900U.B. motor at haydays, less crank. Needed crank and one piston for $500. Maybe he'll see this post.
DOH!! I wish you'd seen it sooner to.
Still looking.

This is turning into a quest!

Jay...
I always keep it in the back of my mind looking at parts etc , I am going to visit my son's in Smithers this late spring and I sure wish I had a head in my trunk heading down to end your search...but just wishful thinking for now..

Look me up when your here, we'll go have a coffee or something. I want to build a 1350 IQR someday, got a long way to go yet, but someday.

call this guy. I hope its still his number he had one for UB cyls on a wc triple setup. They were running these motors in drag quads, worth a shot!!! Great guy to deal with btw! I got a stock polaris cyl UB WC triple cover from him and I know he said at the time he had one for ub cyls!!!!
