Nice Dan. What's with the wonky idle at the end?

I see the go-fast bar on the saw.
When they're lopey like that coming out if the cut and they're hot, its usually a good indicator the low jet is too lean. I sometimes also forget how important the tune is when they come to temp. I have a 2166 I am enjoying from a friend that, when it's real cold like its been, is super fat when I start out. By the time its hot and up to working temp it is just about right. I should really get video of it too.

As long as folks read my signature and see that I’m not taking port work. Leave that to pros
I just have a few that I’m good at. Those guys turn everything into Tasmanian devils. The saws I’ve ported and fugged up far out weigh the ones I do well on.

Nice Kevin. Was this ported for torque, speed, or in-between?
Little of both but focused on torque. It’s a strato so the piston is heavy and they don’t like too many rpm’s. It’ll do great with a 20” and 8 tooth rim

How do you port for torque or speed? I know guys have lots of different ways of getting what they want...

Don’t widen the exhaust quite as much and leave it low. The upper transfers still have plating on the intake half
