    They were gone 2 days after I had them. I need to do another run of them. We changed them a bit but it's for the better. I will order 150 this time.

    It's that simple eh? Hmmm.

    Obviously engineered for performance over noise emissions! :thumbs:

    I'd be very interested to know what else was done seeing as I have a 390 on the bench right now to "play" with. And learn from. Aftermarket cyl however.

    Barely..... Dremel with a flex shaft and a couple basic burrs. Nothing fancy.

    I'm betting I could rig something up if necessary.

    We are all friends.. :dex:

    And we all like to joke, but SH has a reputation that this place doesn't want. FHC is family friendly. :thumbs:

    I think everyone brings something to the table here :thumbs:. We just need to be considerate of the other members that have no idea what the inside jokes are. :)

    If those shirts are for sale? I want one myself :) I like it... And I am just one idiot ;)

    Huh? I thought there would be more to it than that? Unless it's the innards of that clamshell? ? :dex:

    If so? Then I want a 290/310/390 myself :thumbs: That saw is hauling the mail! :D

    I will keep my SH mentality to myself.

    There is more to it then that. You just can't see it, nor will you see it. It's secret stuff.

    I'm sure there was more to that saw than that muffler. 290s wake up nicely when muff modded, but not that nice.

    @Chity_Avatar @Adirondackstihl

    Is it still a 46mm cyl?
