Using that $100 Harbor freight motor for a wake winch?

[Hutch]

Wondering if you think it would have enough power to pull a 200lbs (+/- 30 lbs for friends) guy on a wakeskate/board? Have any of you tried these diy wakeskate projects, I hear they can be a blast on the water or snow?

one of the two main companies started selling a camshaft just for your particular venue. either agk, or nr-racing

do a little search on the forum... there is a thread about someone building one with "i think" a 6.5 clone and a torque converter, worked out perfectly!

NR racing is the company that sells the cam for the Winchboard motor..
yes it will work like a champ
