I thought those plates were part of the transfer ports.

Ok few questions I recently picked up a couple of 3314 strato saws I have compression checked them. 2 were at 150 1 was 140. All were said to run but all need fuel lines and a good cleaning. What's the best way to pressure/ vac test them and do a pop off test on the carb? Also what's the best way to clean sawdust and oil off of saws there dirty

You have to block off the muffler and carb from the saw body. I use a piece of inner tube and slip it between the muffler and exhaust port and the carb and intake manifold. I normally pressure test from the sparkplug hole if if you don't have an adaptor you can use the impulse line. I've never done a popoff test as I don't feel its necessary or what it proves. You can pressure test the carb but your better off simply rebuilding it. The preesure test will tell you if the carb leaks but not the condition if the diaphragms. I use compressed air to clean most of the crud and a tooth brush after spraying the parts with purple power and water.
I like simple green or the orange cleaner I can get at Dollar Tree. Purple Power will mess up the paint if you're not careful.

This is a late model 3400 that I had that I thought I would show the gang and see what you thought about it. I like the black tops on them, I have a 3800 that is the same 
I like the black on them, reminds me of the 8500

Nice looking saw Todd. Did you build the shorter muffler and add the side louvers yourself? If so did you create a build thread on it? Thx. TLG

Actually, I see a little closer this must be a hybrid, taller cylinder, and top cover riser. Very slick looking, NICE!!

The muffler is a regular muffler that I cut the louvers on. I made a form die to press them. I'll post a few pictures of it
Someone is looking at it a little closer, it's called Green Ripper
Come on, just gotta know 88, or 94 Ripper LOL!!

I see those huge transfer ports on the side of that cylinder. That ain't no 3400.
What that little old 3400 probably can't cut anything its just 98cc. Do you want to see the cover off
First I want to thank Jethro for being my sounding board, he is the one that posted about the hot 3400 and I said I didn't think it would be hard to do about 3 weeks ago.
It was a fun project and it is a Green Ripper for sure
