What's on your bench?

Is this spring aftermarket?

My other 2 don't have it...

What Randy said. That s called the seventh mount, and was factory equipment on 288s, helped to stiffen things up when running longer bars. Oh, and HOORAY 288!

By the way Dan, can we get a pic of the stock vs. AM transfer tunnels?

The ones you're showing there suck. Little to no direction.

I put the jug on already. I didn't take any pics after I cleaned up the casting flash and smoothed things out. Also I blended the lip on the bottom of the tunnels. There is quite a step even on the oem jug

What's wrong with this picture?

0.17 at the chamber
0.35 where the squish meets the bore[emoji33]

The 562 has a 2 step squish band. The pop up I turned for one had 2 steps up.

How does one of those do pulling a 32" bar? Stock and ported, compared to stock and ported 372 XT?

I'd never run over a 24" bar on a 562, and would rather just have a 20" on it.

It was up there with those....but the jug really wasn't up to my standard. New top end in route from Maine.

@Redfin , looks like you ported that gas sprayer. A thought came to mind that may/may not help. I was told not that long ago while having a discussion about carburetors, that the polish on the inside was very important to its functioning properly. Not really sure as to why this is, or what it does, but I can say that the fellow I was converting with knows his stuff and would not pull my leg. It was not the main topic that day but was mentioned, so I did not think to ask any more about it Maybe someone else can elaborate further possibly.

 

[Redfin]

I did only take a small amount from the venturi. Mainly it was removing/filling the choke holes and thinning the throttle shaft. I do have a stock 69 I could compare with.

 

[Stump Shot]

@Redfin , was not hacking on your modification, only saying that polishing it might help it function better for you.
