Ok guys, I'm sure someone will be interested in this saw. Timberwolf ported 262 topend. Has a popup piston and a external impulse nipple added for use with a different carb. I bought the topend off a guy a few years back at a GTG and only had a 257 at the time to fit it to. I sourced a 262 carb, clutch and had a muffler someone had already poked a hole in it (crappy job). The ring and piston were pretty worn when I installed it, but you can tell when pulling it over it still has good compression. Starts and runs good, but is lacking torque IMO. It revs out awesome, but you can't lean on it much. I planned on having a new piston done up and possibly looking into a different carb (what it was modded to work with), but I've never gotten around to it. Below is a video of it once finished and you can see it runs strong. The throttle lock doesn't work at the moment, besides that, everything functions as it should. $250 plus shipping.
