    Won't hurt a thing.

    Dominant saw V4 371 build

    I'm not surprised that they're taking the piston back. Like I said earlier, they were good to me. Sounds like you're on the right track now. Good to hear.

    They've been good to me as well. However, I think this piston has significant design flaws.

    I have used a Dominant piston as well. This is a new variation though.

    This is not the first time this has been reported.

    Dominant saw V4 371 build

    It sounds like they've increased the crown height of the piston...too much. Also, a beveled crown on the exhaust side is not the correct way to set port height. It hurts both compression and squish velocity. Bottom line...the piston isn't made right. They need to recall all of these and fix...

    This is the second time I've heard of these issues with this version of Dominant piston. I wouldn't even consider running it. Sent it back for a refund.

    Ms462 base gasket delete

    I wouldn't. That's only part of a compete porting design.

    Stihl MS881! The rumors begin

    The casting looks good. It's just scraped up...looks like it's been handled a lot.

    That would do it.

    Hose length should not affect compression, rather just the number of pulls to get it there.

    Labonville here. Much cheaper than a trip to the ER!

    462 Compression

    That setup will give a false low reading. The volume of the adapter adds to the volume of the combustion chamber to make it read significantly lower than the actual compression. There MUST be a Schrader valve at the very tip that is screwed into the cylinder.

    462 Compression

    As already mentioned, you will not get a correct reading issuing an adapter.

    Damaged cylinder plating question

    Run it as is. It'll be fine.

    Building a ms460

    I would expect a ported 460 to be super rich at 14K.

    Building a ms460

    I would want to break it in with the rings that are staying in it.

    New guy and some background

    I quit taking saw work more than 2 years ago now. It was a combination of health issues and just being burnt out. I miss the side money, but just lost the ambition.
