Some pics...built from "junk" have a video up over on the YouTube channel. Has new bearings and seals. Popup piston. Cut cylinder base to get .020" squish with a OEM base gasket. Covered up the stock muffler outlet and brazed in a 5/8 dia x 1.5 in long tube....a true Chits & grins saw. And it runs quite well...

I like it, what's the psi on that? And did you do any porting on it? 2xx series are so fun to work on and build, good job... Perry

Oh and I like that pop up too!
Right now its a little more than 180 - maybe 185. I don't trust my gage. I left the ports alone but since the cylinder is lower by .020 it has a little more intake duration and the exhaust opens a little later. Runs best when set at 13300-13500 right now so it predictably didn't pick up RPM's but pulls quite a bit harder than the stock one I had for a reference.

That's a sweet looking saw! Very nice
That's it lol.
Well......this isn't my saw, but one I built a while back for a logger friend. He had worn out four 262 XP from brand new and was whining that he couldn't buy any more. I took his four saws and salvaged what I could of the best parts from each. He really wears a saw out......when it's done, it's done so I also needed a lot of new parts but he was more than happy to pony up the cash. This is ported as far as I dared go with it and the squish set at 0.020....one of the great salvages was from his first 262....a 1990 model...the #87 Walbro.....awesome carb....to bad they only used it two years on these saws....really breaths and work well with the porting and the Walker or Walker clone muffler. Brutus little saw with a 16" bar in 0.058 X 3/8" full chisel......really loud saw.....I've since replaced the Walker style with a modded stock 262 muffler due to the noise....
Just sold this one.
Boy that looks way better than this one!!!! This 257 is from the same fella I built the 262 for.......they all look like this when he can't make them run anymore...all 4 of his 262s looked like this........LOL!!!!!
