That is one good looking piston there.   By the way thanks.

The saw is together and running good.    I tuned it in some wood and kept it just a little on the fat side for now.   Checked the RPM's out of the cut 13,300.   I checked the compression after letting it cool down and still holding at 180 PSI.    I had to pull the clutch off of a 505, the one on the 475 would not let the saw idle and chain stop moving.   The oiler works really well and I had to turn it down to keep it from pumping to much.   The bar is a 28" that I had recently did some work on.   Trued up the rails on it and put a new sprocket nose.   
Here are some pics.

Looking good.


Can you show me the bottom of the saw with the full wraps please?  The full wrap can still be bought new as a package deal with west coast dawgs.

You still running the stock green coil? Reason I ask I have read some were rev limited and some were not in green.

 My green ones have been rev limited so far  :'(.

Also got some pistons today too. Thanks back  and  8) ;)  glad I could help you out.

No on the green coil.  When I tore it back down to do the piston I replaced the coil with a husky like was suggested.  The saw I believe is just tight right now with the new bearings and seals and new piston.    I think it will lossen up with use and pick up on the rpm's.

Nice.   Will help make a nice saw some day.  Now if you happen to have a nice recoil cover for a 505
 that would be even better.   ;D

Might be easier to just buy a yellow shell and make or buy 505 decal.

What all ones you have in this series now? 

Still kicking myself over not getting the 445 or least try and get it.  Still the only 1 I have saw.
