As loose as that prison purse is I always wondered how he kept the vibrating anal beads from shooting out when he does that, but then I realize I don’t really wanna know.
If you ask I'm sure he would send you some pictures or a video.

Good morning. Today was my first day of Chainsaw Mechanic School. I picked up a 353 with fried piston. Been wanting to do a build for a while, and the idea of having a stock 353 to run next to my @Stump Shot 353/346xp just seems fun.

It's not like I need another saw, but I do need to learn new stuff so I won't get any more senile.

Nice! What piston you gonna throw in it? I was thinking of cleaning up my 350s cylinder and throwing a 353 piston in it. Maybe dukes coated or meteor.

Not sure if you know or not, but that won't make it a 353, the 350 cylinder has teeny tiny transfers compared to the 353 ones. You may want to search for a 353 cylinder for a better level of performance.

Yes, sir. I was just thinking that would be a little better than the 350 dished piston?

I'm leaning toward Meteor, because they get more respect than other AM pistons. I'd like to go OEM, but that's somewhere between expensive and impossible.

Edit to add: I'll be happy to hear anybody's opinion on pistons for this saw. I'm going for a simple, almost stock confirmation emphasizing reliability.

I have a meteor pist in a 55. It runs very well.
