No. She knows better.
I didn't check in the cut but the mild one was happy around 13.2k and the wild around 14.5k free speed.

On the mild one, was there much difference over stock?

I'm sure there was but I didn't have a stock one to test. Both were non-runners when I got them so they went straight under the knife.

Charles ####ens, A Tale of Two Cities, opening line:
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way--in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."
Yes, I'm a book geek.

Apparantly the software didn't like Dic kens. The opening line of ATOTC has been edited several times over the years, by the Dic kens, & by publishers.
Nice work on the 288s

Ignition timing
Ive wondered why saws dont come with some sort of manual ignition timing lever, like a cam or something, that would advance and retard for easier starting then better running.
I know they can do that now with electronics and digital ignitions (like the new echoes have), just wondering why the idea never caught on with saws.

Just checked compression on both after 1/2 tank each.

I believe many chainsaws already do that. Nothing new there.
What do you think the trans entrance angle difference is? Prob to early to see a wash yet eh

They are both pretty flat. I pay extra special attention to that now. Although I did try something different with the wild build. The exhaust side of the transfers open first and I left more angle on the intake side. Just experimenting!

I couldn't get in there to weld the hole so I had to used deacon F epoxy.
