Just noticed Lakota, Iowa! I am originally from Nebraska, still go home every winter to hunt yotes after the first snow.
I don't have any problems with questions. I would rather pass on knowledge than keep it to myself. None of this 2-stroke stuff is rocket science....
OK, when I do a 372 with a BBK and an 064 piston: 1) The customer gets the 52mm piston that came in the BBK back with their saw, that allows then...
It is not any better than porting for me, but is better for the customer. Lets' say that your saw develops an air leak and toasts your expensive...
OBTW, porting is not a matter of just grinding away in the hope of making the engine run better. It is first a mathematical process of...
Work saw. I can and do port saws but refrain from doing it because of potential problems down the road for the customer. It is my belief that a...
Had you removed the flywheel during your initial rebuild? IIRC some of the older Stihls' had flywheels with two keyways in the flywheel marked...
OK, parts are arriving, yesterday we received: All new OEM plastics, including tank handle, starter, both regular and HD top covers. New OEM...
Yes Walbro HDA-12b, A 372 p/c will bolt right on, no problem! It is closed port.

3/8 7T, everything is cool!
There is some confusion about a 365 SPecial and a 365 XT, they are NOT the same saw. On a SPecial there are NO transfer port covers to remove and...
Well we will be doing a Husqvarna because all Stihls are perfect anyway, arent they?
We start with the OEM specs then we adjust by putting the engine on a small engine dyno owned by a kart builder/racer friend of mine to see how...
Well stay tuned, in the very near future (when everyhing arrives), I am going to build one; AND YOU CAN HELP! Yes you read that right, YOU CAN...
This may give you a basic understanding
So, the pipe installed in the muffler on the saw above is 3.75 inches long with an ID of .5 inches , it would make things easier if you could...
Removing overly restrictive (EPA) components from inside your muffler will improve the ability of the saw to flow, boring a hole in the side of...
My buddy Joe and I have been doing some experiments with 'tuned pipe' (not expansion chambers) on chainsaws. The idea being to keep the saw...
