My mutt 268. Farmertec case, Warhawk 272 cylinder.


With a base gasket, squish .017, intake 70, exhaust 107, trans 124.
All I did was clean some ridges from the intake and exhaust ports.
Being a $20 cylinder I'm going to attempt to spinny thing it.
Might go, might blow.

Any idea where you want to end up?
Looks like good torque but not much for RPM.
Did you measure compression?

I didnt take compression yet. My guage is at work. Bad thing about being an auto tech, some stuff you just dont want to buy duplicates of to have in both places!

I have no real direction intended for it. I probably should. I guess just a good firewood saw that if I drop a tree on, I wont cry. :D

As far as rpm, I could likely lean it out a little. Last time I messed with the carb, it was in the 20's. Today when I did the video, it was -8.

For a mild job, I’m thinking widen the intake and exhaust, raise exhaust a few degrees, and lower the intake floor 8-10 degrees. Go less on the intake if you ever plan to drop the jug.

Thanks Kevin.

I dont plan on dropping the jug. Unless you want to buy me a lathe? :)

Its an easy saw to work on, and parts are cheap so I figured, why not hack on it!

I want to...
I want to buy myself one too...
Want isn’t the problem.

I’ve seen impressive gains from intake timing and nothing else, I have comparison videos with that as the only change. I’ll try to dig them up.
