Yup, gotta watch it...
Are you definitely coming? I'll add a star next to your name.

 

[Paragon Builder]

Answered before I asked.. Lol

 

[drf255]

Derf, u rolling with me?

 

[Mattyo]

I can get numbers for the 353...or 372 or 394 any of those type husky saws...no prob

I'll bring tools

 

[mels]

I can field strip and reassemble a 1911, an M16 and an M60 in pretty respectable time still, lol

 

[ri chevy]

Took me a couple hours last one I did. I'm sure I won't have time but I'll walk you through it and help where needed if you want to do it. It's worth it!

Thanks for the offer. I don't really have the experience or the expertise to conduct the change.

 

[Mattyo]

I have a 353 I need to get numbers on. It's already apart. I need to get timing numbers for a baseline before I cut the case and turn the cylinder base down some. But I need a piston stop to set my TDC and to print out my degree wheel and mount it on something suitable that I can attach it to the flywheel. If you could help me get the Vaseline timing numbers I'd appreciate it.

no problem

If I can go, I'll take you up on the offer for transporting me and two saws.

Thanks. Pics of the tools?

 

[drf255]

Being it looks like we will be under 15 guys, we should start a group PM for what saws people are bringing for sale and asking prices.

If you're bringing a saw to run and it may be for sale, that's a different animal.

I have a YouTube channel ...link in sig.

I think I have a shop tour at the end of my 350 bids
...lemme get a link.

 

[Mattyo]

Toward the end I do a mini shop tour.

Maybe one day I'll do a better one

Yes!


I'm going to have a ported 394 for sale...come hell or high water...still waiting on some parts.

I'll have my 350 there to run and 372 ...and 262xp

 

[drf255]

I'm bringing an MS260 I ported that I will sell at cost if someone is interested.

The fun for me is in the work. If I can get my money back its fine with me.

I'm also bringing an 036 I ported that they'll have to "pry from my dead cold hands". Not for sale.

 

[Boozer]

I hope next Saturday dawns like today fellas, damn near perfect!

Edit: Saturday after next, blew right over Halloween!

 

[drf255]

The 026 I'm bringing

 

[ri chevy]

Nice. Sounds better in cut at full throttle than it does when it is out of the wood.
Can I ask how much you are asking for it?

 

[drf255]

Not sure. Have to add my costs up.

It has a flat cut piston, a new WT194 carb, AM covers, 225 psi right now. Turning 15,300 in video. It rose to 16,800 when I popped the air filter off and was 4 stroking hard still. A metal filter would make it scream.

I used an old piston that had a few carbon lines on it. So it looks scored a bit but it ain't. Running single top ring

I planned on putting a brand new 16" rollomatic in 3/8 on it for the GTG with a square chain. That cost me another $85 with the sprocket.

I'd cut a new piston anytime the buyer would want for free, just shipping.

I kinda like the saw though.
