Any interest in this? PHO
Straight pipe, no muffler, ported, timing advance, modified carb, lots of compression, total of about 3 tanks of fuel run through it since new.
I ran a couple tanks through it to see how things hold up. Part of the copper pipe mount fatigued and came loose eventually, which I thought might happen. I'll secure it with a piece of steel. A machined or cast aluminum pipe might be ideal, but I'm not up for that, since I have a few other projects to get out of the way.
It did well working a hickory today. See the videos:
Hickory buck
Big hickory cookie
Getting it hot and checking the max rpm and torque just below the limiter
Cuts well in the 12,100-9,700rpm range. Will cut from 12,600-8,400, I haven't tried any lower. Max rpm in the video peaked around 14,300 out of the wood.
