What saw are you working on?
Post up some pictures.
Every saw I've been into didnt need or have room for case trenching as the case was already as big or bigger than the cylinder ports. I had to make the bottom of the ports bigger on the cylinder to match the case.
I dont like to add case volume unless it adds a bunch of flow.

Was mainly interested in the open port setups like the 61, 66, 268 where the transfer ports almost look like they are being blocked by the case, right where both mating surfaces are.
I've never looked closely at those cylinders, most everyone gets a closed port top end for those saws. Seeing how those saws are meant to have close ports on them I can see the open port not lining up perfect.
Unless you're just messing around with those saws for something to do, its kinda silly not to run a 66 or 72 closed port cylinder on them.
