Mildly porting a 026

[Micah]

I've got a friend's CLEAN red lever 026 torn down. Here's where I'm at I don't have the time tools or desire to to a full job, what I'm planning to do is a muffler mod, match the cylinder to the intake boot and widen the intake and exhaust. Thoughts? Opinions?

How do you put bevels back on after grinding? Timing advance?

 

[Outback]

Carefully remove the bevels, set them on the bedside table, when your done with that ho tell her to put her bevels on herself before she leaves.

Not helpful!!!

You grind them back in with a diamond ball when your done with the port. Maybe consider experimenting on a saw you own before you do it for somebody else........

Ah ok. Very helpful!!! What could possibly go wrong...? My saws go to Randy.

Maybe just a timing advance, muffler mod and match the intake to the manifold? I can't afford to screw anything up...

If you cannot afford replacement of parts you ruin, I would leave it alone!

It's not that so much that as I just don't have time to do it twice. It's a very good friend that doesn't care what I do so long as it cuts nicely. I just always feel the need to try and squeeze as much as I can out of a saw...

 

[Micah]

As soon as I get this round of stuff finished we have to get our case 1070 in the shop and split it...
Hopefully we don't have to tear in too far but I pretty well takes up the shop.

So back to the saw. For a timing advance how much do you take off the side of the key and which side? Muffler mod, can I just cut the hole top to bottom into a slot? Does grinding the exhaust more cone shaped without enlarging port on the inside help? Thanks!!!
