there is a spot that slides into a notch on the left rear than can hang up ,along side the plug wire .

Yup
That's my bet too

Here is side by side comparison of both the OEM top covers.
440 on the left, 460 on the right

 

[Adirondackstihl]

Using a double cut carbide burr, I trimmed the 440 top cover to resemble the 460 top cover the best I could.

Jeremy does top quality work...

 

[Mastermind]

He's slow........but he does crappy work?

No wait..........that's me. lol

Got the clutch spun on.


Remember me saying something about the paint on the oil mount surface causing an issue? This is when you find out!
With the clutch spider spun on the crank, the oiler arm/spring will not move........when it should spin freely

 

[Adirondackstihl]

By milling a few thou off the plastic worm gear and offsetting the crank a few thou, we are able to overcome this obstacle.

Farmertec coil.
Wiring harness that came with the coil was obviously for a clamshell so I had to repair the used OEM harness that was supplied and use that. The spade was busted off but we can fix that


The ignition lead needed to be shortened by approx 2" and probably could have taken off another 0.75". I think the coil was intended for a 290/310/390.

You don't put the break band in before the clutch???

Yeah, he's OCD as F***...

Obviously

Mike, I knew I was going to have fitment issues with the worm gear because of the powder coated oiler mount surface. And I knew I was gonna need to do something about it and didn't need the brake band in the way.
In this pic I had simply spun the spider on to verify my assumptions

The last powdered case had that in this area. I used my Dremel with a wire brush and removed it. Worked fine. Is that an OEM clutch or one from across the pond? The reason I ask is I bought a clutch for a smaller saw and when I spun it on yesterday there is certainly something awry -- it wobbled going on like a rim with one lug nut on . Needless to say it came off immediately.

I scrape off the powder coating if it's in the way.

Of course I don't have OCD either.

 

[Adirondackstihl]

This powder coat is some tough azz chit.
Ida liked to watch someone scrape it off the case in this particular area
