Nice not so minty work saw.

 

[fin460]

I'm asking 500$ shipped pho in the lower 48, sold as is, no gurantees. Saw may blow up tomorrow. I split the case to install an new case gasket since old one was leaking. The bearings stayed in place, so I just put it back together since bearings felt new. I regret that now, but that's the way it is, I haven't had any problem with the saw yet. Runs fine for me.

The KS cylinder is perfect to my notion, original piston as well, no scoring.

Nice saw, can not believe it did not sell already! Add and HD-2 filter, dp muff cover & richen the tune a bit and it will make a lot of 460s re count their ccs!

I love those KS jugs.

 

[fin460]

I love jugs as well. I'd go 450$ shipped pho on this saw to the lower 48

If I had the money it would be gone

If I wasn't building a 10mm 044 I'd be all over this. I love 044/440's!

I've been told that the 044 cylinders with the diagonal fins are the best. Is that true and why?

 

[fin460]

That's what I've been told as well, and the diagonal fin cylinders produced by KS are the cream of the crop. I have no actual experience, just what I've been told. I assume these cylinders have more optimal port timing. Or can be ported stronger, or hopefully an expert comes along in a minute and explains the real reason.

 

[mdavlee]

Little different chamber size and transfer size.

 

[MustangMike]

I have 2 KS jug 10 mm saws, and both very very strong stock. One is now ported with Randy's "new recipe" and is even stronger.

I have seen other strong running 044/440s, and not, but I think the KS jugs were just consistently among the strongest running. With a DP muff cover and HD-2 filter (or max flow), they will hang with a lot of 046/460s with the same modifications.

I have also seem some rather anemic 440s out there.

There were Mahle angle fin 10 mm jugs, and angle fin 12 mm jugs also (some of the early ones).

The jugs are likely the biggest reason for any performance difference, but the 10 mm saws also have slightly smaller case volume.

 

[MustangMike]

At this price, shipped, this saw should put a smile on someone's face. If I did not already have 2, and a potential 440 in the pipe line, I would jump on it.
