On a more serious note I will never buy or accept another mcculloch.

It doesn't hurt the balance any? I've never done anything like that or even been that deep..
It was a pretty easy as shown in the thread I linked to earlier. They run quite well stock though. Like I said up thread though, since it does not have A/V I'd probably not put too much effort into it.

Did you open up the exhaust any to cut down on back pressure or am I looking to create more back pressure?

The work doesn't really bother me I mean I'd rather learn on this 15 dollar saw than any of my other saws

I opened it up to a duration of 151deg. I did not modify the ports in the cylinder at all, just trimmed a notch in the piston.

Later I changed the printout to one that read to 180deg in both directions rather than to 360.
