It's hard to say... I think mine will be all 350...
Grind the hell out of it and growl... Can we put a different carb on em', or no?

I'm a popped 353 kinda guy. They sure do run

I actually have 2... Both in boxes... Barely serviceable jugs... A few parts just plain missing... The thought of digging into them don't really excite me much right now... But I can have one carved up in a couple days when pushed... I got another stupid 028 to deal with before I get to it... I'm developing a hatred of those saws... :msp_angry:

I like 028's,how many you want to get rid of? I do need a good 028 super cylinder. I also have a nos p/c waiting for the right saw to come along.

 

[Wood Doctor]

That sounds like fun. I just picked up a 029 and 3 290's a couple weeks ago they don't take long to tear down. The 290's pistons and cylinders are shot so they might turn into 390s the 029 had a new piston in it and the didn't put any gasket sealer between the bottom and top end it'll be running by this weekend.

Will try to make it to this get together but it'll depend on the harvest.

My experience has been that my MS 290 will not hold a candle to my MS 361, even when the 361 is pulling a 20" chain and the 290 is pulling only an 18". The stock 290 is just not in the same league--less displacement and less RPM. However, the Farm Boss will always be around and will probably last forever. It's a good horse to have in the stable and the "hollow" sound it makes is truly unique.

Thanks for the compliment but you're still paying double for the next bit of lathe work.

I'm thinking we'll have a "stock modified" class and an "outlaw class."

Stock modified = whatever you can do with an all stock OEM P&C and carb

Outlaw = GO CRAZY! if you can fit it under the hood DO IT! Whatever you want to do... Hell make a ethanol pipe for it! LOL!

I fully understand your thoughts and reasoning but heck I still go with the bikini concept when setting regulations. Trust me it works and there are no arguments.
