    Project "Mu Shu 660" is underway...cases are together, top end on, flywheel and coil installed. Oil pump, clutch and chain brake in place. No real issues so far, had to take .010-.015" off the inside corners of the piston skirts (was just barely touching the crank) and clean up the cylinder ports a little, other than that, so far so good...and I just realized I need to slow my roll and take some pics! :hair: :ithappened:

    Project "Mu Shu 660" is complete! :saw: :thumbs::dancer:
    Well, except for a little tuning once I get a B/C for it.
    Was a bugger to start...turns out I had flooded the crap outta the poor thing...a couple plug drying sessions and it was off to the races...popped right off and ran perfectly, once I got the extra "assembly oil" burnt out anyways...sits there and idles nicely...hot restarts in 1 pull...pretty pleased with my purchase so far...pics to come.

    Been shopping B/C for project MuShu660...people seem to suggest .050, is it really that big of a deal to get .063 chain locally? Lots more selection of .063 bars for 660s...

    Get .050. You can buy a bar and get a smoking deal at loggerchain.com when they have sales. .050 is the common one here
