Question mweba or anyone with good knowledge. I have been researching on modding transfers on 365xt & 372xt. Although there is some talk not much on pics or video even YouTube. This is about the best I have seen so far. I am glad to see such info but have a few questions. Did you thin the skirt to almost sharp edge at the ground area? Did you take much material from flat face of transfers back toward cylinder wall especially where the transfers curve back toward top end of transfer? I had a couple of transfer covers I got from 372xt to place on my 365xt. Should they be ground back more as well? I have only done some port work on 372xp with success but XTorq is newer to me. If I was to use 3 bond instead of gasket is it necessary to modify exhaust and intake or piston transfers. Degrees and such is beyond my grasp for now. I seen some on here talking about slight grinding work on piston transfer I believe at top rear of piston transfer but no pic or diagram to elaborate. I can manage to modify muffler no problem as I done so by adding port on xp muffler on previous saw after opening exhaust a bit. Can you and or others advise me on matter please? Pics are best if you can provide.I did a little grinding on lower port to open it a big to gasket size but am wondering if I did not have the opening gradual enough. I will see if I can upload pic to demonstrate. I am not fluent with computer stuff.
Also is it very beneficial or not to polish transfers. I know it can be easily done with Dremel stem ground out to have a slot to place fine grit wet sand paper.
