Two things. Yup less chance of flaking w/o breaking into it by porting. But also the hardness and consistency of the base casting has a lot to to with plating staying "bonded". ( For the same reason a road on a soft base potholes :) ) I put my experience in video's. Had better luck over a period time with the unlikely choice :)
You know what, I am starting to gather an understanding of these wonderful machines. You do a decent job of explaining things. You see my whole life, I've been a slow learner. Once I got it, bam it's cemented in. Your whole explanation of the Chinese 660 I started mixing concrete. Keep at it and I might have to donate. I'm an old dog (72) new tricks ain't easy. Thank you for your content.
Those ms660 base gaskets are about .018 thick. Tips On grinding those Hyway cylinders and titanikel cylinders . To grind on the ports without chipping use a green silicon carbide grinding wheel or stone. I have good luck no chipping the only draw back is it takes longer to open the ports up.
It might be like tooling that's TiN coated... titanium nitride is super hard. Doesn't mean the tooling is titanium... just that they use a molecular titanium coating for wear resistance. If you've ever used a TiN tap, they cut like a hot knife through butter.
Just my observation, with what knowledge I've gathered-little retained, looks as if your going 4 torque and are going 2 get your chain speed through sprocket size. Looks good, will be interesting 2 see it up against the LNS 064 !
You might be on to something. If there is titanium it would just be a binder for the carbide since there would be no reason to line a cylinder with titanium because it's even softer than cast iron. And while nickel is pretty hard the wear resistance comes from the carbide. This is how I understand it at least.
The titanium scam extends across many products and industries. Titanium is in everything but it’s really freakin not. It’s marketing wank. Kind of like when “gold” or “platinum” is used in product naming and marketing.

Use your solder for checking squish to check to see where the pop up hits, it'll leave an indent where it hits.

Hey Dubb!

👍👍 will be good to see it perform.
Hey CF!
Great description of your view on blowdown👍🏻 now I think I get it! Why you don't worry about it. And I dig it😎
Good lookn cyl.
I love it you should bring some T-shirts to sell a Sawfest
Cool shirt

Waiting to see what it does😀
