Hey Brad, remember the good ole days when 361's were awesome and you used to port everything with ridonkulous wide upper transfers? Well, I copied your porting on my 361 those many moons ago. I just tried to make my cylinder look like your pictures. And it worked dandy. The saw still runs like a million bucks, except that it takes a while to warm up and it idles realllly fast before it gets warm. Ones she's nice and hot runs a beauty. Is that because of the stupid wide uppers? I left timing the same and just made everything WIDE. It was the fad at the time. That and routers. Anyways, can I correct that cold high idle issue by changing port timing? Or what causes it? Saw has 16-17 squish so maybe I should check if it freeports..... it was my first ever port job.
In the 'good ole days' the 'experienced' saw builders wouldn't answer these kind of questions. Or they would make you jump through some hoops, make fun of a guy first, and then maybe.....possibly give you a hint. Now we have guys that share the secret sauce and they have more work than they can shake a stick at. So I think the good days are now.
