Hey i got an o36 stihl that's a little tired out (bout 120psi) have it apart and am looking at the cylinder it appears to be in really nice shape. So I ordered a pop up piston and did some mild cleaning up on casting imperfections and deburring it. Now I'm looking to move onto cylinder I've been doing lots of reading on porting saws and I get the basics with .020 squish and making the air flow up transfers to top of the intake. But I am no porting expert. Did order a degree wheel that's not in yet but once it comes in I'll get some numbers on the saw. Just curious if anyone has any advice before I start grinding and possibly any numbers these saws like. Any help is appreciated thanks.
