Somebody needs to post a video of a 262 running a hda-87 and then same saw with 120 or 144 or both. I would love to see the real time comparison.
 
It's time to see what the fuss is all about with these 262XPs. I just picked up a really nice one tonight off Craiglist. I had to drive a whole 10 miles to get it, lol. I'll get some pics tomorrow. I've already had it all apart, cleaned it up, and got it back together. BTW, it has the HDA 120 carb.
 
Glad to see someone finally ask. :)

I like the port to end up as straight as possible in the area that will be above the piston. Also I think that ring wear will be less if the port sides are parallel with the bore.
 
The curved fingers are what DC,Tom Fales Jr, and a few other old timers did. I wish the archives had survived race saw s. There was a lot of info on finger ports and race saw timing.
