I know lately I've been asking a lot of questions about saws and building them up.
I been keeping my eye open for a play saw. Nothing to work with, but something to hop up and have fun with.
I've found a Dolmar 143 and have done some research and found that they are gov regulated at 8500. And that ungov'ing them will most likily cost a crank failure. Is this true?
If they have a weak crank then modding one won't be a good idea, will it?
I plan to do a cylinder port. Not a mild, but close to race. Also plan on the biggest spocket it will turn quickly. A pipe may even one the list later on.
Are these too much for the Dolmar.
This isn't going to be a race saw, just a fun saw. If that makes since. Also getting parts shouldn't be a problem. My dealer has sheds full or parts saws for every kind. So yah or nah on the Dolmar.
As always thanks in advance. A lot of know on this site.
