hey cut, is there a part number for that piston?

all i can find is: 503 538 601 does this sound right? can't find anything pertaining to type 1 or 2..... :)

just found it's a type 2.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news for you.

But I did find the PP325 type 1 piston sticker today when I was needing my service manual for reading up on the heated handles.  Found in between pages.  ;D

The sticker on the piston box for PP325 type 1 states,  Partner made in Germany 503 53 86-01  same number that is being used on the type 2 piston sold now days.   :'( :'(

yeah the piston would be nice. however, this combo seems to be waking up pretty good so far. maybe the piston from that kit might be in order, but i'll be grinding this piston i have to see what kind of improvments i can get from it first. we'll see.
just at tank 5 now and it's holding a pretty strong 8600ish rpm in the wood. i'll wait to see what it's like at around the tank 10 and maybe i'll get time away from work to pull the piston and do a little hacking ;D

Problem with that link.... The ad lists the kit with a closed port part number but they claim it is 46mm, all the closed port cylinders were 45mm. I would contact Baileys directly to make sure it is in fact the closed port 45mm kit.

The slight gain that a closed port will give is not worth spending $200 on a new top end.

and so far i can't see the any way that kit would make more power than the one i have already. even with the full circle piston, this saw is becoming a pretty good runner. it makes pretty good torque. i'm going to try to get a good few more tanks through it this week and then take another comp test to see if it's come up any. it was sitting around 135 ish just after the first tank of gas. i think after the 8th or 9th tank i'll be pulling it apart to do a little widening here and there :)

You show more patience than I , I got my kit early last week & will be doing my widening of things & tightening the squish from the get-go.  :o

 ;D patience or time restricted ;D i'm so freaking busy at work i hardly remember what my shop looks like :D
whats a piston?
do huskies have muffler bearings? ;D
i hope to get a couple of weeks vacation off at the end of september so i can catch up on a few projects. thank gawd i have all the home stuff done so i can do a few things that i want to do. not stuff i have to do.
still have to throw another poulan 3400 together for a friend, i actually get to use the lathe at work today to shave the bottom of the cylinder for it.
i hope the 12thou run out on it doesn't affect anything :o (work inside joke ;D).
 i've used it before and it is a good little lathe and is very accurate.
so how does the cylinder that you recieved look? pretty good?

Yes, the cyl. looks OK. AS I may have said, it looks as though they just "bridged" the open port cyl. to make it closed. I am going to put a timing wheel on it & see what I get. A pop up may appear on the piston too  ;) Not totally happy with the plating at the top of the cyl. I'll have to measure things up to see if a pop up is doable.
