IMHI, a 260 will never be a 346 or 261. Putting a bigger carb on a 260 is not a simple bolt on ordeal. Then you have to figure it how to make the choke work, which I never did. It's just too far behind with to many obstacles. Then you're still left with with old school AV and horrible filtration. Now, in not talking about race saws here. I'm talking about being able to build a fully functioning production capable saw.
I agree completely. The 026 was one of the first saws I modded and over the next couple of years I've built a pile of them....and I've learn was tricks that will make em run. They will make a strong 50cc saw but never will they be a 346xp.
The videos are processing. I don't have any way to edit video (I wish I did) my wife bought me this JVC video camera at a pawn shop without any of the software. JVC is not user friendly when it comes to working with just any editing program.
I'm happy with it now. It has a butt load of torque.
I'm sure I could get more upper rpm power from it but Darren asked for a saw with torque.
The timing numbers are still stock. I raised the exhaust the amount I lowered the jug....never touched the intake....and just leveled up the transfers. It's at about 190psi so raising the exhaust would be my next step. I really need to move on to the next saw though.
