Mike's a ****'n hack. every saw he built for me creates so much saw dust it's rediculous. all over in the eyes and everything. i'm so sick of it i'm thinking of going back to stock
And my elbow tooI guess you found the limit of the bearing for 230 lbs of compression.
That too. Maybe we should open the chamber before you put it back together.And my elbow too
Is there something to the intake port I'm missing? Just wondering why it's not rounded out. Like a nice oval shape? Just curious.
There's a screw hole on each side where the block intake/carb screw in. Also, the impulse "line" comes out just below and left of the intake and runs thru a PITA channel thru the plastic block and into the carb.Is there something to the intake port I'm missing?

288's are a fun novelty, and are probably better built than the 385/390, but there's no way I'd bring the 288 over my 385 for a full day's workI see. I've never had a 288 torn apart. I figured there was a reason.
Thanx Mang! I might even throw in a base gasket.Might want to sand the squish a little with stick on sandpaper on the old piston. You don't want a high spot to hit the new piston.
Good idea. The flywheel side is easy, the clutch side not so much. I'll see if a gasket can take it below 200psiYou should have used more yamabond on the bearing to hold it together .
Or bought that 044
I can see 230 psi putting some strain right there ,get well soon 288 ,if the crank seals are easy to get to ,may pop those out if just going to flush the case to make sure all the debris gets out of there .Sometimes stuff gets on the seal side of the bearings .
Even if 210 will help a little ,was the 230 cold or hot ?Cold will read higher usually .Good idea. The flywheel side is easy, the clutch side not so much. I'll see if a gasket can take it below 200psi
