Mastermind Meets The Echo CST-610EVL

[CST610EVL]

Mission nearly Impossible - ECHO CST-610 EVL CDI unit

Sorry to anyone if polluting the thread but the thought just occurred that if the CDI on the saw in this thread goes dead it will change the course of the build maybe - unless some more half dead ones are in supply

For now I have a CDI repair company looking at this issue - will report on progress as it comes to hand

What happened here? Did Genius steal some ties? :hmm3grin2orange:

Pie would be getting us back on track!

You're not polluting at all.

Keep us updated about the CDI rebuild, it would be good if they can be repaired. That might help with other restore project too as parts become scarce for some saws.

I've made a set of case gaskets for the little twin, but it's still not made it back to the bench.

Can I plan on sending mine around fall 2017?

Damn JJ.....that soon?

Sounds like that'd be pushing it

Well obviously that's considering if Randy doesn't take any additional work between now and then.

Is it a bench or a runway? :jester:

Yeah, that's what I'm screamin.

I've got a really sweet 372BB I'm wanting to build using a 272XP piston and a 385 carb......a nice 385XP I wanna put together too....I'm also sitting here with a few Pioneers that I'd love to wrench on.........being busy is a double edged blade sometimes.

 

[Jacob J.]

I'm keen on seeing how the 372BB turns out.

 

[parrisw]

Yeah, that's what I'm screamin.

272 piston works good, however the one I used, left not much room to widen the ports.

shut up you old fool, and get back to work. everytime iam on AS, you on AS. no wonder no real work gets done.

 

[MechanicMatt]

Being busy is a double edged sword. I do a lot of side work on peoples cars after I leave the dealership. Im either slow, or too busy where I forget what days I tell people to show up and what Im fixing what nights. Thankfully I somehow pull it together and fix them all. Tomorrow I gotta finish a 528i, german cars are my least favorite to work on. Funny how there saws are a blast. I gotta find somebody that can rebuild a 911 trans, anyone now of someone??? Needs synchros, grinds going into third.


Oh yeah Blueberry pie, and vanilla ice cream!!!

I don't widen ports much anyway......should work right well for me then.

Ya, it made a really good runner actually. Surprised me, mostly all I did was set the ports in the right spots and it worked real well.

Matt, I have never done a 911 tranny but I know of a few guys that got caught in the syncro trap, they went into the project with a budget of 2k and when the trans guy opened them up they ended up needing gearsets etc, I've heard horror stories of over 4k! If it were me I would get an exchange price on a rebuilt unit, I know it will ding the resale value but might be cheaper if they are just looking to get it done.

The "jumbo" muffler.

And this is where sadness struck......

How about an update?
