That's up there. Keep the old girl nice and rich and watch for run on :) She'll be a torquey beatch.

yep cuts like a saw possessed tuned at 14000 take it down to 13700 and you lose a fair bit
so far have had no run on

She gained a little more after break in than I figured she would. Watch her in the heat.....keep the fins clean and she'll be fine though.

no probs randy i don't cut when the temp is above 72*F if i have any problems can i put a .5 mm base gasket in her

Yes and it would still be a beast. :)

I'm gonna have to start shooting for 10psi less on a new saw.

It sounds perfect to me Big D.

I like big compression ya know.......but 220 is on the very edge. :msp_unsure:
 
think i'll start running it on 98RON

On some of my saws with a bunch of compression I'll pull the muffler and inspect the piston crown once in a while. So far I've not seen any signs of trouble running 87 non-ethanol and Belray H1R at 36:1.

top of the piston is very dark could say black but can still see machining marks so no carbon build up lite brown on edge
at the EX port exit
 
I think your probably fine Mr. D. I gotta 395 pumping a hair more than that, Im very cautious and kept a close eye on it for awhile. I ran 3 tanks through it on Saturday and checked it again Yesterday, It looks great! Pump gas ethanol blend :)() and 32:1 synthetic.

Thanks for that reply Durand. David's 395 is blowing 230.......what do you think about that?
