I would rather see a video anyway

 

[Mastermind]

I'm tired my friends.

I think I'll watch TV and crash early.....

 

[skippysphins]

Always tomorrow my friend

 

[skippysphins]

Go rest

Twice baked

I've gotten "baked" way more than twice............

Just sayin', and stuff.

Uh, 10:30 ain't early to crash in my book. But then again I get up before 5 every morning. Have a beautiful and wet Friday big fella.

From the looks of it "The plateau" is getting rocked with a squal line right now.

Compression......

This one is Steven's old hag of a saw.

What are you expecting after ring breaking?

That small amount off the squish band made a huge difference, huh?

 

[drf255]

Randy,

3 more questions.

Did you advance the ignition timing, if so, how much?

Are you base gasket delete with 040 from the SB and only 026 from the base!

What did final squish come out at?

Let's hope the rings don't break. Lol!

 

[David Young]

great thread looking forward to the tricks that they like.

I slept thru it......

It will end up about 215. I use a little oil to help seal, and get a better idea of final compression.

No ignition advance. I will test that next though. If it doesn't make much difference I'll leave it stock.

Yes, .040 from the squish, no base gasket, and .026 from the base.

great thread looking forward to the tricks that they like.

What tricks? I'm done with em.

 

[skippysphins]

Bring on the videos !! Good morning buddy !

 

[David Young]

oh just remember some tips you had for building 346's I thought that's what you were referring to. great thread randy thank you for sharing. I wonder how close these saws would be in cut time. they should all be identical right?

You can do 20 saws the same time the same numbers and always have one just a little bit better than the rest. That's my experience anyways. You can also have a lame duck too. Just the human element at work.

 

[blsnelling]

+1. Machines just don't work that way. There are always differences.

 

[Mastermind]

Yep. Always.

To be honest, I've tested that too. 9 out of 10 times the coils are where those differences are at.

 

[David Young]

I know your porting is fairly consistent and I am sure the variations happen. I would have guessed the carbs made the difference.

 

[Mastermind]

Coils are very inconsistent. Differences in the timing can really affect performance.

 

[David Young]

ok I have very few tips you can learn from Randy but here are a couple.
