    562xp case splitter

    that's the one I was looking at. I have the 562 tore down now wihout a splitter, but that splitter should work with most larger saws correct?

    562xp case splitter

    looking for a case splitter for my 562xp, I see most places have them for $160, but jacks small engine and like 1 other place have then listed for $40. both Husky brand, are they the same? or some Chinese knock off? does it come with all the same stuff as the $160 one? any sponsors here that...

    2260 vs 562xp vs 576xp non at

    I think that would make more sense too, as I can take both to the dealer and get the carbs reflashed at the same time. thanks guys for your input

    School me on firewood tractors

    I would look into a ih 300u. small enough to go through the woods, live hydraulics. the one thing I don't like about the new compact tractors is they have no weight, weight equals traction. this summer I picked up a farmall 300, ended up overhauling it, came with a loader, brush hog, disc...

    2260 vs 562xp vs 576xp non at

    does the 562/2260 respond better to porting than the 576?

    2260 vs 562xp vs 576xp non at

    so after porting my first saw i have gotten the itch to port something else. next week I'm picking up a jred 2260, husky 562xp, both auto tunes, and a 576xp, non at. guy said jred needs muffler and carb programmed, 562 has a bearing issue, and the 576 is scored. so I'm thinking I will...

    echo 450p build MM and port

    ran saw, same wood same chain, still playing a little with tuning but this was the first cut post porting. down to 4 seconds, pre port was 6 seconds. another gain of 2 seconds. for comparison my ported jonsered 2165 is 3 seconds in same wood. picked up a lot of mid range torque, you can really...

    Want to Sell Dolmar ps-421 (NO LONGER AVAILABLE)

    that sure is pretty, glws. very tempting.

    echo 450p build MM and port

    should you take the intake out 60% to 70% piston diameter as well? would that reduce the velocity of the incoming charge? exhaust is as wide as I'm going to take it now. still needs polish. took another 1/8 off 1/16 each side using same measurements for intake is huge compared to the original...

    echo 450p build MM and port

    started grinding on the saw past few days, widened exhaust and intake, need to do final measurements may widen exhaust side a little more. staying within 70% of piston dia. I have not touched transfers on cylinder, besides a little sand paper action, did take a little out of crankcase, well...

    echo 450p build MM and port

    have not forgotten about this saw yet. just took video for pre porting, this week, after I get done building Christmas presents, I'm gonna do some grinding on the cylinder. picked up new bits, will take some pictures before and after of cylinder porting so you guys can tell me how bad of a...
