Haven't done one of the older mufflers, is that all that's in there?

That’s a good looking saw.

Thanks! The owner is proud of it. I would be too if I owned one. Really nice saw.

Yup just a birdcage, cut it off the reinforcement back plate and reinstalled that piece. There are tabs holding it in place + the muffler sandwiches it when the halves come together... so no need to tack weld/braze it like 7910 muffler. I do the 7900 mufflers the same way.

All cleaned up

Wow, that is a lot of junk inside there. I am still trying to convince our estate owner to pick up a 79o0 from Andrew
BTW, I use a Teng tools small screwdriver and just pound it thru the crimp with a small hammer. The Teng Tools screwdrivers are nearly indestructable. It just takes a few minutes.

They not only perform better, but also run a lot cooler than before.

I didn't weld/braze the bird cage/SLR base on neither of my 73's mufflers.

Nice SOLOBoy. Lol

I like the walbro carb and it has a beefier cylinder av spring setup than the 7900 series. I don’t like the t25 screws, wish they were t27 and it’s a shame parts are hard to get for these. Really nice saws and very similar to the dolkitas.

You need bigger spikes so You don't dent the muffler.

Nice saw.

Are they direct bolt on compatible?

I like the Star Trek ones.

I want to know the answer to this! I have a set of "trek" ones left, my new 665 should be here within a few weeks from Germany.
