Well finally got the crankcase sawed out of the chainsaw :O( Painted the case red and mounted the jug. Looks pretty good, weighs 3lb 8oz bare. My question is concerning the prop adapter. I have a metal lathe but not much experience with it. I am assuming the best solution is to make an adapter to fit the taper and internally threaded on the engine side and internally threaded on the prop side to accept a 3/8x24 shaft. The only other way I see to do it, is like a G23. Will use the chain side shaft to mount sensor ring. Any other ideas or comments? Good luck, red
