V2, no extra nub/meat to drill and tap.






V4, with nub to tap.

Watch out for crank flywheel differences. Coarse thread vs fine thread are different flywheels

 

[Johnmn]

And the one piece coil saws had 2 different cranks and flywheels. One with a cast key and one without, if I remember correctly you cannot interchange flywheels. I believe the crank is a larger diameter on the one with a separate key.

What do you guys think about a thread for parts swapping on just this chassis?

Here's how you can mount a 372 wrap
To a 268/272
This bottom fastener is in the correct location you just have to add the second hole.
And not use the other 2 locations

You just have to bend the down tube to fit the recess
Both fasteners line up with the existing holes
I relieved the bottom corner to make it easier to fit.

The brake flag is too tight
I'll try some different versions.

Looks good, this guy here did it a little different.

I think your way would be stronger unless you welded the pieces together on the way that guy did his.

My way took 5 minutes
I'm way too lazy to do all that to make a handle fit

 

[Czed]

The plastic flag works fine
Plenty of clearance for bar nuts and top cover.

That does look good, I might do that to mine.

I have a 162 parts saw...well, case and tank...how much interchanges (or doesn’t) with the rest of the saws in the series? Seems like most should.

 

[smokey7]

Yup most stuff does. It's close family with a Jonny 630 for a top end.

I don't think that will last to long.

Did you get it, it sold?

Nope

 

[davidwyby]

I might have bought it if I had seen in time and had a saw nice enough to put it on, ha!

 

[Flip]

What is the best way to fix egged out top cover screw holes? I'm looking at my 2 series projects and all the crankcases have at least one hole that needs to be repaired.
