1320 is the flywheel side and 003-1972 is the clutch side. There's also 9640-951-1972 used for the clutch side on saws with cat mufflers for whatever reason -- likely heat related. Probably doesn't apply in your case. Both seals are the same size.

And it's a 10mm saw by all indicators, though I believe there are 12mm slant fin top ends floating around out there these days, too. The serial number says it should be a 10mm small end rod and wrist pin saw. Can't help with the date, but guessing somewhere between 1988 and 1992.
Looking for non de-comp top shroud cover also.

Coupla shark gills in the OEM front cover woulda been my approach for starters. That barker is gonna wreak havoc on the case.

cut the can volume almost in half
then blow ex at crankcase


i'da run it stock first
then maybe open it up a little
just my $.02
I will definatly break it in with the stock cover. I just wanted to see how it looked.
The cover does not blow it directly on the case. It has a deflecter to direct it up on about a 45 degree angle.

Oil line inside the tank is not submerged when saw is tilted?
Are you trying to correct an angle while mid cut?

There ya go. One thing's for sure, it'll sound cooler. I just worked on a guy's 461 with a BB. There is a distinctive sound to one.

I ran a 460 at a GTG with one of those BB's. Not sure what else was done to the saw but I handed it back 1/2 way through the cut it was so loud. I was wearing ear plugs too.

Ran across a small Stihl at the auction barn today. It was showing no model #.
16" bar w/ an engraved # that looks like it could be a serial #, 265208859. Can anyone help with a model id. I would like to research it. Thanks.
