Lookin good .Say on that second vid is that an actual finger port or did you extend the intake side upper  transfer ?

Not sure     The divider between upper trans ports is doing the trick but I'm sure ring wear will be excessive.  Didn't build it to cut firewood all day though 

The 350 is done and test cut with it today.

The stihl clamp I ordered did not work without using a longer screw, didnt use it anyways.  Even the poulan 415-505 Jred 2077-2083 clamp was super tight with it's longer stock screw. They both would work, but like others said before the 372 is a better fit and the poulan 3300-330 one worked great to with room to spare.

Why the jonsered update says to use a 2077 clamp is beyond me. Here is what they say.
(((Once this modification has been made, hose clamp 503 56 00-03 (used on model 2077 and 2083)
can be fitted as shown.)))

As it would be when needed the 372 clamp wasnt in the husky 362-372 bin  .  So I went with the poulan 3300 or 330  clamp that was tested fitted Thur.


While I had this 350 torn down. I decided  I finally had seen enough of the plastic intake clamps going bad from deforming and creating air leaks and destroying saws.  I wasnt going to chance it any longer on my ported 346xpg and went ahead and put the updated partition kit on it.  All done and ready to let a guy I know that will be picking up his dad's 350 tomorrow to test out. 

Ah the kid needs to get a hold of a Smitherized 038 Mag .Old Smith himself needs to get about two dozen of them so's he can tweek em .
