Not on the bench but I am about to put my freshly rebuilt 727 transmission back behind the 440 in my motorhome. I will be SO glad when this project is done. I need to hurry up, deer hunting is coming up.

I have some things that need to be on the bench, but it's clear right now. I have been getting things together for the Poulan GTG this weekend, seeing if the old junks will still run and such. I have to say that they all do indeed still run. The 8500 was stored dry and it started in 3 pulls...

This is on the bench today... special thanks to the man above....... MARK :msp_wink: for the NOS Homelite bar. Will have a thread on it also and maybe some video of it cutting a good sized white oak this weekend, if it ever stops raining. 3 days straight now, 4-6" already!

The saw is now all over the bench in pieces. As I posted on my other thread that I don't see on the thread list, I'm very happy with the purchase. Cylinder and bottom end are good and show relatively little use. A new set of a/v's to replace the missing and torn ones, a new carb kit while I'm at it and more than likely a base gasket delete and some port work and I'll be done.
