Where the Wild Things Are
Well I think the original airbox entrance is large enough, but I enlarged it a little anyway. Here is the original:the non strato wildthingys have 1 small air inlet near the flywheel. If the crapsman is the same way then open it up a bit to compensate for the bigger draw from the carb and porting.

And here enlarged - the setup actually filters quite well and I didn't want to jeopardize that:

The early saws were listed as "Turbo" filtration and had this inverse scoop:

But it was probably a PITA to mold, and you can't take the engine out without removing the flywheel (I remove them with the engine mounted anyway).
