If you need cylinder or parts donors for testing and adjusting let me know. Got plenty on the shelf. Maybe could work out a Dyno run or something. Thx

Appreciate it.

I have an idea of new school vs old school on the dyno.

You going to port it? I have a pretty dern nice runner here. A ported vintage saw would be cool.....

It might get ported.

These were my favorite little saws when I started into saws

 

[Red97]

They certainly sound and feel snotty. Mine does just blipping the throttle. Wood will happen soon.

Not many 40cc saws came stock with 16" full size 3/8 chains

Dang! All this talk is making me want to find one of these things. I blame you Joe

My dad and I pitched in and went halfies on a chainsaw back in the late 70’s. We bought a super XL. It was a close call between it and the EZ. Even as a young man, by the end of a “session” I was looking for a smaller (lighter) saw. Many years later I decided to track down a vintage EZ. They are plentiful, but some are just beat to death. After about 15-20 minutes, I’m ready to set it down and grab something with anti vibe. The old EZ makes me all tingly half way up to my elbows!

I am glad the dyno dosent feel vibes

Strictly just a power/performance standpoint is all i am after.

Cool factor almost always goes to the oldies

These little guys have a following to guys our age Duane just because of what you said in your post. Most father's started their son's on these as a first saw. Yes they are snotty and pull a full size 3/8" with authority. Shake, rattle, and roll is all part of it for sure. Just like the 10-10 rumble bee's. LOL.

My second saw. Im 30 years old.
Am I your age too?

 

[Duane(Pa)]

You’re not old unless you have the brochure lol

Frank's for the nutsack kick as @dall would say. You guys have a good afternoon. Gotta get back at it.
