Wait a minute Fred. I didn't BS about contacting the guy. I can send you his response if you don't believe me. It is not my saw so I can't be Bsing about anything there so what is the point? He did not say he used a 066 crank but told someone it was a M/C rod. Couldn't he also use a M/C crank? No balance problem then. I know of a racer that put a 250 M/C crank, rod, piston and cylinder into a 090 Stihl chassis.
As for using an 064 crank. That is the same as a 066 crank in stroke. He also told a member here the displacement was maybe 6.1 CI. That takes more than a long rod because displacement on an 066 is 5.7 +- CI. I have not said it is or isn't stroked. Can't we refrain from tearing the guy up until we find out? He mentioned to me that he has a nitro fired 064 for racing. I would like to see him become a member here but with the negativity that would be hard to envision. Mike
