I was shooting for 105/122 didn't touch the intake height. I was a little conservative in my grinding.
I'm at 108/123.5/70.5
After talking with Al I'm going to try something. I'm going to raise the intake to 75 and see how she runs. I can always go back in.
Don't know if you don't try...

Grinding impeccable Dan. Great work.

48.5* of cranking compression. 15.5* BD

I bet those transfers are just about right. We can always raise a bit Dan.

Bet it pulls like a freight train with the 87 carb

Beveled and cleaned up

I'll be bringing a 101 exhaust 261/2. Will be interesting to see the difference.

I'm a hack at best! Al on the other hand is very professional.
Thanks for the compliment

Pretty don't matter, running matters.

Your saws run great. I think I have a man crush on you.

Got her all together. Fueled her up. Popped on the 6th pull. 2 more and she was running! Sounds good, smells even better! I'll give her a run in some wood tomorrow...

Just So I can remember on Friday, the 261 I'm bringing has .050 from the band and is sitting at 101/116/78.

No bridges or fingers. Same muffler mod.

I'm gonna install the 87 carb tonight.

It would be great to see the difference in how they run. I think Marcello's 108 exhaust saw is gonna beat mine up.

Awol's 110 exhaust 562 is apparently the fastest "small saw" Jason has ever run. If it impressed a guy that's used to running ported 90cc saws, I figure the low exhaust may have sone u discovered merit.

My Lil echo 490 has a 106 ex and will wow a few of you.

The 108 will be a torque machine. The higher exhaust will beat it in small stuff and a dyno I would say.

We'll see Mike.

My saw was supposed to be a 103 saw, but the roof came out too flat for my liking. I had to raise it 2* to get the arc I wanted. It's a peaky arc though. Is say less than 5% of my port area is open before 105.

My comp is at 240 after a tank. Another reason an exhaust raise was in order.
