    Homelite C-72 Max Power Build Hybrid

    All tags missing on this saw. after some research I believe it is a C-72. It runs well but w best loaded carb tune seems a bit weak. It may have a case seal issue. I figure if I am going to take the time to pull it all down I might as well go stupid on it for the fun. Here we go. What is the...

    So I know it is a long shot as porters like to hord their numbers! But I was given a 120SI that is in really good shape. I have put new piston in and had to make a velocity stack for it, as finding an air filter was a pain. So anyway just hoping someone will chime in and give me some numbers to...

    Husqvarna 55 build: Anyone done a timing advance or have any port timing #'s?

    Started tearing down my open port Husky 55 today. Bought it as a parts saw, because it was bell to be blown up, turns out the spark plug threads were stripped. So I figured I'd pull the jug and fix it and while I'm at it, do some port work and few other misc mods. Has anyone done a timing...
