Where did you get the exhaust deflecter, it looks cool.
Also, "lighter flywheel" Is it from a different homelite? Or was it machined?

the fly wheel came off the xl-12's in the later 70s and 80s. it still has the same magnet placement but they shave off more metal and cut down the number of fins.

exhaust tip came off a really old ward chainsaw i think form 1950's. it was only 3 bucks of ebay. I retro fitted it to the xl-12 muffler base.
