385xp for $200? What was it's condition prior to the build? It looks shiny...

 

[tlandrum]

it was a basket case that had lost a cylinder becouse of a spark plug electrode coming out. so i broke it all the way down and built it back up with all new parts intending to keep it for myself.

 

[SawTroll]

Did you do anything to the carb - as I understand it, that model has a lot to gain from carb and muffler mods alone?

 

[tlandrum]

i dont find the need to modify a carb on this model as a work saw. i can get 35-40% gain on it without it being done.

I got $350. Bucks

Terry,

You are cheating yourself out of $50.00! $350.00 x 2 = 700.00 and you have $755.00 in the saw. Let me know if you want me to keep the books...

OK, your call....

 

[bryanr2]

it was a basket case that had lost a cylinder becouse of a spark plug electrode coming out. so i broke it all the way down and built it back up with all new parts intending to keep it for myself. but now that i am a jonsered dealer i will be changing all my saws over to red so this one is going to go.

except for the model that cant be mentioned (372 replacement)? :hmm3grin2orange:

 

[tlandrum]

im sure there will be a red and black version of the saw i cant talk about and trust me when i say i will gladly purchase one for my personal use.

 

[tlandrum]

I also just went thru this thread and put all the pictures back in that was lost during the hack. so its here for anyones use again

 

[tlandrum]

I don't think I posted it in the thread but I also advance the ignition timing about 1/3 of the keyway on these saws

 

[ft. churchill]

What kind of timing numbers did you get before you ported it and where the numbers after all of your efforts?

 

[tlandrum]

im not at the shop and just shooting from the hip but I think the intial timing numbers are about 170ish ex 150ish in about 25* blowdown . when im done its about 160 intake 161 exhaust 22* blowdown and ignition timing advanced 1/3 of the key
