Ahh gotchya. How did you cut it back? Literally just hacksaw it?

Angle grinder with a cutoff wheel. Then smoothed it out and polished it up.

Ok got it thanks! Spoke with Larry at FAE today. Im going to remove the switchblade mount as I don’t use it. He needs to me to measure center to center on the bolts so he can make a plate to go in its place. 

I did the same thing. I keep my boat in the marina for 6 months out of the year, and hated carrying the switchblade around all the time. I might be inclined to keep it for special surf days if I was trailering all the time.

Beware that the Switchblade plate may be structurally bonded to the hull in addition to the bolted joint. There's a big risk that you can damage the fiberglass (and not just Gel Goat) trying to remove it if it was bonded with permanent adhesive. I opted to just remove everything from the switchblade setup except for the plate. I just cut back the vertical support mounted to the plate to clear the FAE. Should help reduce the spray I was getting from the Switchblade apparatus when it was unused.

Is the muffler on these the straight piece that  runs along the back the engine?

 

 

Yes. Big fiberglass tube.

I have an 07 Sv240 as well, I'd be interested in the actuators.  Always good to have a couple on the shelf, in case one freezes up.  I'm in Utah.

if the Corsa actuators to switch sides were still working i'm sure that's worth some $ to someone.  they tend to have gone bad by now on those mid-2000's models.  i'd also keep the switchblade and actuators as those are impossible to replace, maybe someone will need them down the road.  i'd toss the muffler though.

Thanks for the heads up. The actuators to switch sides definitely work. I used them all last summer and just took them off the boat. I'll put them up in the Classifieds.

Where abouts are you located. I’m sure shipping would be expensive unless you are within driving distance.

I'm located in the middle of California. The muffler would definitely be too large to ship, but the other parts are pretty small. Good call though.

I converted my 07 Enzo SV230 to fresh air exhaust, and removed the switchblade at the same time. Because of this, I have the muffler, the corsa exhaust parts with flappers, and 2 Lenco actuators from the switchblade. My question is, are these items worth trying to sell, or should I just trash them? I guess the only value would be from someone with a similar boat that needs to rebuild their stock setup?
