Locked up ms440 from a local tree service gets the Golden Horseshoe award. You couldn't get any luckier ingesting one of the screws holding the muffler to the cylinder. Must have fallen in after it stopped. View attachment 152884View attachment 152885View attachment 152886View attachment 152887

I’m not a fan of the design of screws being inside the muffler like this for this reason. I use loctite on em and check em after the first heat cycle! No problems after that.

Done. Lets see if it grenades.

Finall. Put this 026 together I got off eBay. Was gonna sell it local but I have bigger plans for it. I’m attached to it now.

Ye of little faith. Lol. I'm sure she's more than a little sporty ;-). Nice build Al. It DOES need on of those fancy badges you got for sale, unless it's not in the budget

Looks great Al, but the "purists" may gig you on putting an 044 sticker on a 440!!! Them flippy caps give it away!

I nutered mine. Lol

Fuel tanks can be replaced, it is the Oil Cap that counts!

I never heard of a flippy cap in a 044 case?

But I did put an 044 P+C on an Asian 440 case!

 

[Deets066]

If you buy a new oem case and new tank to put on an 044...

 

[MustangMike]

OK, I'm good with it. I didn't think there was a way to convert screw to flippy!

Thank you Deeter!!!

Not the trusting kind, eh. Lol
440 case and tank, 044 most everything else.

Or if you mount 044 jug and slug on a 440 chassis, its technically an 044 in my opinion...not that that matters much! Lol

 

[MustangMike]

Well … by that definition I have another 044, but I won't call it that cause the 044 crank is in a hybrid, and I still got the case halves!

If you said Crank P+C I would totally agree with ya (which is what I think the guys above did).

Before

might as well open up the exhaust some too.....

...add to that crankshaft, flywheel and carbeltater's to the multitude of different cylinders made and it the mix and match can be endless to suit different needs.

How do you know the cases havent been split before you acquired it and another crank put in??? Huh,?? And what crank? An 044 possibly?? I just think 044 sounds sexier than 440...
