62mm bore 3120s?

Should be more like 65mm bore if it's 42mm stroke.

 

[Definitive Dave]

They are bored and stroked indeed 62mm, have to use the oem cylinder in most races.
Mine arrived today, anybody got a pipe i can borrow ?

 

[redline4]

Stroked as in rod changed out? Or entire crank?

Here’s the pipe Dave. How much you need?

I’m loving all the chardon vids you have been putting up. I’ve been learning a bunch by watching. Thank you I know it’s a pita.

 

[Frank bierce]

Wow!! Smokin fast!!!

 

[David Young]

Stroked as in rod changed out? Or entire crank?

A rod change doesn’t change stroke. But will change rod angle.

The pin needs to be moved on the Crank.

Dave do they limit to oem jug now?

Who's the guy in the Orange jacket recording the video. Looks familiar??

Yup, but that wasn't the point of the question.

 

[David Young]

Yup, but that wasn't the point of the question.

Ah gotcha now

Most guys start with the OEM 3120 crank, but not all, the range of rods used is pretty diverse as well. Falicon in Florida built mine from OEM 3120 crank and a new 084 rod which is a popular choice because they are light.
You see full circle cranks, turbo cranks, skeletonized cranks, the whole range of tricks to gain that tiny bit over the other competitors.

Dave do they limit to oem jug now?

every show/race/competition has it's own rules and many are a huge ordeal to even find out about, Webster, WV which is the next one i am going to race as requires an OEM cylinder, but not all events require this

you guys gave me that rain jacket the week before and it came in handy

 

[blsnelling]

You be gettin' serious with these chainsaws now, Dave!

 

[Definitive Dave]

I hardly have any stock saws left, they are too much like work
Racing is fun, pure adrenalin for that (hopefully) short few seconds in the wood.
Lots of guys with all kinds of ideas as to what makes power and what makes speed show up and then all the guessing stops and the racing starts
When all the silly bickering and stupid wang measuring goes away a bunch of guys can get together and have a great time.
Now I just need to find a place where i can buy 100 acres of nice Tulip poplar next door to a large bed and breakfast and an Amish mill so i can have GTG every couple weeks all year long
