The Bubba Builds A Closed Port 55

[Mastermind]

As far as a cylinder swap goes, I don't think the view is worth the climb. There's plenty of OEM options to mess around with along with various pistons. Parts are dirt cheap which makes it kinda fun.

We think a lot alike......

@Mastermind a 254 is 45MM and the piston is windowed maybe that would be a possibility for a piston for the Bubba?

I've got a 353 popup on the way.

254 has a 12mm pin also.

Scary.

They would make a good GTG build off saw.

Whadya use to clean? Dawn platinum with Palmolive is my go to mix. Cleans and degreases great. Also great tire bead lube.

And get you a DeWalt 12v impact and drill set. You'll never use full sized (or Milwaukee!) tools again. [emoji3]

Just bought a 12v DeWalt 3/8 to go with my 12v screwdriver. Picked up my 20v Max DeWalt and M18 stuff and thought "dang this stuff is heavy!"

There is an aftermarket 45 mm windowed piston available for the 55 Husqvarna closed port but it’s a little pricey.It can be found on ebay

Found it. It is pricey.

Considering that I've already ordered the 353 slug from Bruce, I'll stick with it.

Thin ring or thick seems to be a toss up on AM piston. Most times Stihl, Husky or Caber will have one to fit those pistons.

With that small carb I have had good luck keeping the intake in check and not widening much. Intake is a mess stock

 

[David Young]

It would be neat to get a 55 cp wide skirt piston with a popup. I’d be happy to inspect if you are listening hyway

 

[Motorhead]

I thought about taking the choke out of the carb and putting the intake bits from a 50 on one.

Its kinda fun watching Bubba grow up through his build threads... each time he builds a saw he's another 1/2 foot higher than the bench.

His mother is 4’11”

The Bubba probably ain’t ever gonna be a tall feller.
