Another chainsaw dyno...

[jcf86mod]

Yes tight top vs low top filter setups.

I'd like to see these 2 options tested and see if there is any noticeable difference between the high-top and low-top

This would be interesting. I will say that I think the results would be close if both filters were new/clean. I imagine the HD filter would pull away a bit if they were both contaminated with debris. Fwiw, my jred 2165 put down over 8 ponies on the dyno with the smaller filter.

Yes this is where the larger filter gains. Don’t have to clean it as often.

But with the low top you can hold it down with your gut while sharpening just like buckin billy likes. Lol.

 

[Red97]

Wonder if oem Vs am he filter makes a difference?

You guys sure do come up with lots of stuff for me... Lol


What are some of the more fun hybrid saws? I'll need some summer projects.

 

[Homelite750]

Has flocked vs mesh air filters been on the dyno yet?

 

[thinair]

It would be interesting to see one of Joe Johnson's Donkey D*ck Pipes tested, and Maybe one of the Greg Brewer "Vein Crank Saws" tested

064/066 hybrid. One of the easiest to do too.

 

[Maintenance Chief]

066 ,056 mag hybrid.

 

[David Young]

359/272
036/044

 

[Johnmn]

I have always wanted to make a 254 with a 262 top end

 

[farminkarman]

359/272
036/044

Has anyone done a 359/272 recently? This one in particular has my interest.

I believe that was the first ported saw I ever ran ... Bret brought it to the Upstate NY GTG!

Of course, I knew I did not need a monster like that, but I knew I needed a ported saw!

When I purchased an 046 and it would not out run my 044, I sent it home with Bret and he cured that problem for me!

That was my first ported saw, and I marveled at how much faster it bucked up a large Red Oak that I dropped.

Yeah I've seen very little of the 660/056mag monsters, so I thought it might be a cool one.

 

[MustangMike]

And I still remember Lee's famous comment "All that work, and it is still not 100 cc" (it is 99!).

He has some nice monster saws ... some of them yeller, some not!

An old hotsaw guy - Ricky Hennessee - built one back in the day that guys said was hard to beat. He played around with different carburetors and timing on it.

I may or may not have received tracking numbers for the majority of the pieces required to make this happen...

I’m hoarding goodies for one of these too. What carb and muffler are you planning?
