Well then I guess I need to buy some 335 parts!

I put it together last night with the parts I had on hand.  It was a plated cylinder and two thin ring piston, I did not measure either so thats the best I can do for identifying them.  I didnt modify the ports in the bore, however I did open them up (both intake and exhaust) to provide better flow into the cylinder.  Baby steps.  I did flat plate the cylinder base and remove the base gasket, being that it was a used top end this gave it a huge boost in compression.  Lastly, I removed the screen and baffle plate in the muffler for now- I have a second muffler that I am going to really modify tonight. 

It fire up in two pulls, dead cold after being apart.  Runs suuuuuuper crisp, I just richened the L a tiny bit as it seemed to be idling a bit high and not dropping down quickly enough when I chopped the throttle.  It was just some shop run time as it was late and dark, but it seems to run really great- I am going to sink it into some wood today after work, I can't wait. 

Thanks for the part numbers! I will be ordering the 335 parts next paycheck and building the other bottom end I have.  I'm up to 6 saws, and I just gave one back to my dad.  The 335 will make 7...I think its safe to say I have CAD.  All Poulan/Craftsman, with one lone Pioneer P28 (Granddad's saw) hanging out as well.  Its green so it stays haha.
