Please explain the strategy for the dip in the intake floor. If I am thinking correctly, that is how you are optimizing your numbers while keeping your intake timing truly in check. The intake port is still eluding me.

I think I’ve made a few lazy revving (relative to a better ported saw) by dropping my intake a little too low, although I hit my numbers.

Thank you!!!

That little dip is the original floor. I didn’t leave it there on purpose, but it’s not hurting anything either.
I don’t like lowering the floor on these once I’ve machined them. I only widen enough to take out a lip on each side. This one was already 1* lower than I like so I left it there

MS461. This jug was the worst cast oem 461 jug I’ve seen yet. It had a huge casting divot in the transfer inlet and the divot that’s normally seen in the intake port was probably twice the size as what I usually see. I managed to clean things up pretty good but the divots in both the transfer inlet and intake port can still be seen.

Had to switch to a 562 to keep it interesting. Local tree guy brought it over and said the dealer told him it was scored. Turns out the bearings were shot and locked up. When I quoted him the price for a new short block he asked me to port it also :thumbsup:.

He will probably come back with another one once he runs that one.
Only done a few 562’s. I change them a little each time and check the owner’s feedback. I’ll find out tomorrow if it’s any good. Maybe get vidja if it’s not raining

At one time husky sold the short block. Do you go that route because of economics?

Both bearings were shot. Cheapest I found was $80 for both proprietary bearings with seals and a gasket set. The whole loaded crank case with new bearings, seals, and the crank with stuffers was only $109
