[Deets066]

I think we have a solution though

 

[Deets066]

I got an extra OEM 066 jug you can have if his doesn't come out right.

I appreciate the offer

 

[Mastermind]

Here's that jug we talked about Deets.

It didn't work out JJ.

You're still my hero, despite what Thomas1 says about you.

Looks like this AM jug is gonna free port a few degrees. Nothing like what we were gonna have though.

Even with my piston?

 

[Mastermind]

Yep. I checked the KS piston VS a Mahle, and the AM one. Only .002 difference in height.

 

[Deets066]

The ks piston was much shorter than my Mahle, with a much longer skirt. Weird

 

[Mastermind]

Maybe some Mahle pistons vary........I would not be surprised. The one serious difference I've seen between KS and Mahle is pin placement. The KS piston can vary, with some being too close together to be able to run it backward. I ran into that on 064 builds with fingers.

Finished this roach up last nite, I'm pretty sure sawmikaze wants to buy it from me hahaha...gonna run it tomorrow...new bearings seals piston yadda yadda


Then started putting this ol 066 bubble top together...while enjoying one of pa dans favorite beverages...new piston in a cleaned up Mahle cylinder

Got the handle on and ready to pressure and vac test...which I did this morning at work


Put the clutch and flywheel on tonight then realized my dumbass left the carb kit, fuel line and fuel filter on the counter at work...wanted to run this tomorrow too but I guess it'll have to wait till next weekend. I opened the muffler hole and stared at that baffle for a while...I'm just too stupid and can't finger out how you guys get em out...so I left it.

 

[Mastermind]

Drill out the spot welds in the back. Then the top ones you can use a burr on.

 

[PA Dan]

I just did the same thing Ted! Heres what I did to the baffle!

Stupid dremel didn't seem to fit in far enought on the exhaust port side...I'll have to take another crack at it. Thanks. This is a certain 066 I'd like to have a certain tuned exhaust for anyways

 

[Mastermind]

I think we are next on the pipe deal.......

 

[big t double]

Vey cool. Just call, or text, or email.....or pony express, whatever the cool kids are doin these days.

View attachment 420291 View attachment 420291 View attachment 420292 Almost done the referbished 038 magnum.Waiting on the intake boot and I'm starting her up. She's so pritty lol

I saw the tape on the paint can. I am interested to know what type it is. It looks good on the saw. Will it resist oil and gas well?

 

[Stihlofadeal64]

Well I got two crank cases, three cylinders, two top covers, and I think one of everything else haha. Got to flush out and check the crank cases.

If there is an extra crank case I am interested
