Miller Mod Saws and the CS-500P Echo!

[Barneyrb]

I just finished catching up on this thread. Very nice work @Miller Mod Saws and contributing editor @Mastermind .

I feel sorry for those poor bastards on that other site, I bet they're still pissing and moaning on this same thread , and no dickweeds trying to tell a builder his saw is not performing because he downloaded the exhaust note into some half ass computer program.

Yes I agree and think the accuracy on that program is +-50%

I pull the Welch, c ring and screen then a Lil firm pressure and it pops right out.

That is a tiny venturi

Before after

It was off a 36cc saw and going on a different 36cc saw.

The 500 is runnin pretty good for a damn Echo Carl! I like how methodical you are when building somthin you've never worked on before. I don't have the patience!

 

[bikemike]

The learning process is the best part of something different. Wish they could slot piston and make a read valve inside a skirt for the maximum amount of volume and still compact for short intake runners

Your all wrong. I just wing it! Lol.

Hell even a reed plate insert for intake boots

Me too!

Looking good Carl.

 

[Miller Mod Saws]

Looking good Carl.

Thanks kenneth! You'll have to borrow ur sons so we can have a shoot out! See where I'm at now on gains. Lmao!

Nephew bit we can do it. That 7910 slug and jug will be a good excuse to make a road trip. Party at Miller 's.

Op sorry! I was close. Relation any how! Lol.

 

[bikemike]

Good old races. I will be waiting for a vid

Posts like this are the reason I don't go to AS any more.

My days there are numbered.

That's good stuff. The only carbs I ever messed with were GM Quadrajets and Marvel-Scheblers on the two cylinder Deeres

Yep. I'm sorta in that technical field and I completely agree with you. Spectrum analysis of sound frequency recorded by a cell phone and compressed to go over the internet is garbage. I could not believe in the thread on AS that tortured numbers like that were given credibility above a tach reading directly from the chainsaw.

Carl I enjoy write ups like this and appreciate the thought and effort that goes into a build such as this. I honestly never had much of an interest in Echo saws but the mechanics and thought process is cool to follow. I'm learning a lot. However I need to learn a lot more.

Bumping this great thread as a reference point for Red's 490 build.

If these saws as is can compete with a Masterminded 346, they're a solid foundation.

I may try my hand at one.

I see you speaking of them not liking more ignition advance. Has anyone tried .005 off the key at a time with no other changes?
