He can't explain in a thread or via pics what took him 40 years to learn. Also, no 2 guys will port a saw the same way so what works for others may not work for you.

I'm not questioning his background, I'm questioning his background on this saw.

Who really comes into a 550xp thread and says they don't have to worry about over heating lol. They literally will overheat, and not start, stock. They even came out with a modified top cover, for wait for it, over heating! So I really am confused when he comes in here and says I dont have to worry about over heating, when I'm modifying this saw, in ways that can cause more heat.

Scott, please explain what else there is to do to a 550xp, cylinder/piston mod wise? I have not heard anything about ignition timing so I asked.

I'll wait.

your confusing an engine over heating with a carb that is being over heated.
but what the hell do I know about chainsaws.

I have nothing more to add

Seriously? Over heating is over heating. Stratos run hot! Please tell me with all these tree monkey saws running around you know that stratos run hot, right?

So please, make me out to be "dumb" on my own personal build thread, that I was hoping to do to help others, since I haven't seen a pop up for this saw. Maybe some of you "legends" should put your egos away.

Are you serious? Your thread went 2 days without a reply. I felt inclined to help you out with honest answers and you instantly doubted me. If you want help, don't be an Askhole

I've thanked you. Really dude, wasn't talking to you.

Scott has gave ZERO input and has bashed my popup idea on fb.

If anything, Scott, you should be offering help.

Have you seen a stock 550xp over 150psi? I dont have the saw back together yet..

No, you were being cocky and didn't understand why I was doing it. Said taking .020" of the piston makes it weak, doesn't make the yields etc etc. You've tried it on a 550xp? I haven't, so that's what I'm doing.

I wouldn't be afraid to push the comp up to 250lbs on that saw
