Looks great! I didn't watch all the videos, did you build it stock?

 

[94BULLITT]

Yes, other than no base gasket.

 

[T.Roller]

Awesome looks strong

This is a chain I am working on for it.

did you remember to put the square cut o-ring under the oil pump?
you don't have to remove the bar studs to remove the bar plate.
the brake spring is easer to install if the clutch drum is removed, and the brake is tripped.

couple of things to help you in the future

No I did not put the oring under the oil pump. I just saw that in another thread tonight and was going to do it to tomorrow but thanks of telling me.

I have to remove the bar studs to get the inner plate of because the holes do align just right.

I'll remember to trip the brake next time.

I would mod the plate to fit correctly so the studs seat right.

She sounds fat, what rpm is she tuned to ?

Nice set of assembly videos [emoji41]. They make me feel more confident that this was not a mistake for me. To this point I've put a 390 short block in my ms290 and put a big block kit in a seized Makita 6400.

I put the flat oring under the oil pump.

I removed the bar studs and the side plate. Then I reinstalled the bar studs and went to lay the side plate at the studs to see were it needed filed and it went on. I'm not sure why it would not fit before.

Thanks, if you have done a MS290 cylinder, you've got this covered.

Hey now don't call my saw fat I don't what it is tuned to. Since it has basically no run time on it, I don't want to hold it wide open not load. I figured I'd leave it rich for a tank or two.

There's a tall round looks like a small bushing that goes under the pump. With that small o ring it may leak, but it a not

That's the one, not what I would call an O ring so it threw me off sorry.
