Welcome To The 12 Saws Of Christmas

[hseII]

Makes it pretty much an 038 super. And i bet a whole lot lighter one at that

Not @ 72cc.

Edit: Muh Bad, I was thinking Maganum.

You just make the bushings like a cap that goes over the ends of the pin. That way the bushing holds the pin, and the circlip holds the bushing. Of course you still drill a hole in the center of the bushing to lighten it. Does this make sense?

Sì.

Did you her me?

Sooo,

461 wif an 0h64 jug?

 

[Mastermind]

Oh My

Sooo,

461 wif an 0h64 jug?

I'd rather have the quads

How you know?

You had a 461/064?

 

[hseII]

461/64

 

[hseII]

464?

 

[Redfin]

Wouldnt that be almost like an 046?

 

[hseII]

Probably

The base ends up pretty thin......and that's without compression work. I need a 10mm pin piston with a taller crown height.

How thin?

Who's got their saws done?

I'm looking at doing a 036 with a 044 top end.

Was thinking the same.

It's still in the CC limit the rules stated.

I'm gonna split the case and have the deck milled. That way, all the jug drop doesn't overly thin the base. I'll have more leeway that way.

A 10mm 044 piston should work just fine. If you're bushing for a 12mm piston, why not add a 52, or better yet, a 54mm big bore top end. The CC limit may be exceeded, but WTF. If you're gonna dance, dance.

I have an 046 with a 64 piston in it, I have a 461, and a 64.
Just not a 464

What carb will you be using @Mastermind?

I've been looking for a bigger carb for the 036 and it's a tough one.

The stock boot orifice is tiny. An 038 boot is plug and play with a mucho larger bore, but I've found it makes the saw a slug with tons of spitback. I believe that the small bore and the anti reversion stippling of the stock boot is part of how this saw runs so well with the usual 82-84 teardrop intake after dropping the jug.

I think a carb swap will require a lot of customization for the linkage to work. The impulse line should be simple to reroute.

This is good stuff.

 

[Mastermind]

I'm not even sure it's worth doing Al. Just looking at some possibilities. Like you, I think the 036 is a great runner with all the OE parts.

 

[drf256]

I like the pin caps you mention Randy. That's a great idea.

The 12mm pin option opens up a lot of possibilities.

 

[hseII]

What about using an 038 mag cylinder & piston? Would that be more straight forward?

Are the strokes the same? I'm too lazy to check. lol

I must be thinking about this wrong but are you shortening the pin to utilize the brass caps?
