Al posted the link but here it was originally when I cleaned it up minimally. As far as I know this piston is still in the logging woods in a 395. I opened up the windows quite about and ground out what I could from where I could. I weighed the popup piston against s stock piston and the modded piston was heavier but the difference was negligible.I ended up cutting the squish band and leaving the popup .050 tall. That 395 was pulling 215 when I reassembled the saw. In retrospect I won't build another with so much compression but it's easy to go overboard on a 395 in terms of compression.
