I am going the route of performance for cheap on this saw, found a clearance piston and cylinder kit thats based off of one of the premier saw porting wizards work, in precast form, instead of a poor imitation of the stock cyl.
When i got it in there were some questionable bits in the transfer intake and the intake port, so i busted out the carbide cutters and die grinder and went to town... here you can see the stock port size vs the ported size... i could habe opened it up a bit more, but i am new to cleaningup/porting cylinders, and dont want to mess it up so mostly just cleaned up the rough castings and mold markings to smooth out flow
Gonna be waiting a week or 2 for the new rubber intake boot to arrive, once thats in, i am gonna swap in a new carb kit and maybe a new fuel line and pulse line as well... then everything goes back together and we make smoke and woodchips!
