2.3 cu/38cc Homelite chainsaw
Im converting a 2.3 cu inch / 38cc homey chainsaw but im wondering how many of you have experience with a 38cc and what twister manifold do i need to get the carb mounting straight. I have a Zama on it now and will try it but i need a manifold as the original is part of the airbox for the saw.

RE: 2.3 cu/38cc Homelite chainsaw
I have an old part number for the twister manifold. It is UP03863. I checked on http://www.ordertree.com and http://www.outdoordistributors.com/. It seems like that part number has been superceeded by PS04537. I have not ordered any manifolds using this new part number yet, but a friend has purchased the twister manifold with the old part number of UP03863. The cost is around 4 dollars. Whether this will work with your 38cc Homelite, I do not know. The part numbers that I have listed should work with the 25cc and the 30cc Homelite motors.

The 25 and 30cc have different shape and port size openings then the 33, 38 and 45cc. If they are the part numbers for the 25 and 30cc I dont think it will work.

If you check my first post in this thread, I mention that this part should work for the 25 and 30cc homelite motors, and I do not know if it will work for your 38cc homelite motor.
