Started porting husky 350 cylinder. What would you guys suggest doing on the lowers? Open them up a bit or leave them tight?

While not a pro porter and still just messing some with it the lowers look way to restrictive and I personally would cut them out to match the machined gasket surface on them.

I haven’t done a 350 jug, but it looks extremely similar to 359. I hate the sharp edges at the bottom of the lowers. I smooth those top and bottom. You can take out the whole base back to the gasket, but it adds a lot of case volume. If you keep your intake high that’s probably okay. Some people remove the divider behind the transfer caps. All the extra case volume seems to help with longer bars, but they don’t rev quite as high.

Did a little transfer grinding maybe too much hopefully I can jb weld the one cap bolt in? If not it'll get a 346 cylinder of some variety any ideas? Need to go more between uppers and lowers?

Echo 9010 blower that I was replacing a crankshaft bearing on and decided to fix the wonky exhaust and transfers. No lathe work or BGD. The exhaust port was raised .5 mm (didn’t put a timing wheel on it). If you’ve ever run one of these, imagine what 10% more feels like. I’ll have to check the RPM’s tomorrow and see how it compares to stock. The 10% is my guess.

They are using a WY platform Walbro. At 80 cc they are maxing out the pump capacity of the carburetor, so there’s not room for much loss of pumping performance.
I can’t imagine that blowers will get much more powerful than this simply because the human body can handle only so much. But I did see that Husqvarna is launching a bigger one, or maybe already has, at 56 newtons vs 48 for the 9010.
