I wouldn't quit til all traces of the transfer were gone. split a dowel rod, slip some of yer 120 emery in there, chuck it up to yer drill, work it. howsomever, that's just me and my anal self. just sayin

I did end up getting the rest of it out as it was sort of bugging me too. I just used more finger pressure since I didn't have a dowel handy. I'll try the dowel and drill trick on the last one. One more 026 jug left to pull and I can already see the scored up piston, so it will need the treatment also.

Hey Adam, Are you going to make one of those for an XL12? That would be very interesting!

Yes sir Steve! I milled out the exhaust port on your head and will make a pipe for it next.

I got this far on the SXL pipe, the Tig torch and I did NOT get along today!
My fault of course.

pretty neat

Isn't that the truth. Sometime I just have to walk away, can't run a bead without dipping the electrode, my
hand - eye - foot coordination will not work.......at that point I bravely walk away!

We all have those days when we need to stop & try again later. Some of us more than others.

Hmmm. I see possibilities of XL12 races.

Hedgerow: Call my cell when you have time.


I need to know how deep we want to get with the Deere.

I haven't figured out how to do P.M. with my phone.

Do you have a fast one?

I'll have dig out my SXL performance project that I put on the shelf about 7 years ago and see what I can salvage. I went a little too far and it went boom. [emoji31]

I have a tank for you.

Sweet!

Do you have a fast one?

Not yet. But I know a guy that might build a pipe for one of mine.

This sounds like FUN!!!

I was digging through some boxes of spare parts the other day and ran across a cylinder that looks like an XL12, except it has a decomp valve in it. I'm not aware of them ever having that. I know an XL400 has it, but where in the world did I come up with it, I have no idea. Might have to do further investigating this evening.

Put that XL400 head on a XL12 lower?
I'm sure it will take some modifying .

 

[Jeepsnchainsaws]

Does it have six ports like this ?
