Not sure what you mean by "short" but it is a bit taller than the one on a 10 10 I have. I have a no chain brake SP60 that has the same cover as the SP81. I also have an SP60 with the chain brake, just hate to take parts off good saws. I have yet to put gas in the SP81 but I think there is hope for this one. Thanks for the reply!

The one on this SP81 is the style of the 7-10 in the picture. It does have the full wrap handle. The saw was sold as "stuck" but a little oil and gentle crank turning and it came unstuck and seems to have good compression and the cylinder looks nice. Paint is rough but I'm not concerned with that now.

The flywheel cover from the smaller displacement saws will fit the larger SP models but you need to add a couple of holes to secure it solidly to the larger saw chassis. There is one extra mounting hole in the bottom of the cover...

And one extra hole in the top.

The clutch cover will interchange without any fuss.

I have SP models with the full wrap and with and without the brake. There is a wider full wrap handle to be used with the brake, otherwise the clutch cover will not come off.

Mac. 10-10 auto returned to the runner catagorey! Oiler doesn't seem to be outputting well but running again. We will see if she hydro locks again with the oil pump spring clip.

Tuned pretty good now. Had to fill the oil and pump manual oiler about 30 times to make oil fly. At least that works.
