Nice Job Chris, that engine is holding its revs real well now.  Maybe look around for a rim drive and swap on .325 chain?
Thanks, it's a nice little saw now and I can run it without being bugged that it won't rev. 

I'm actually a fan of 3/8 lo pro, and I have not seen any rim drive sprockets for these little Zenoah-based designs.  The GZ4500s have 0.325" chain, but you need both the drive sprocket and the different oil pump worm gear.  Anyway, it would need narrow kerf, and I already have a bunch of lo pro bars. 

I was trying to decide which saw I've taken apart more times, this one of the 42cc Cratsman/Poulan I've been experimenting with.  I had to put six helicoils in the Poulan case as several of them finally stripped out, and only one in this.  I'm hoping to leave both of them together and just use them now!
