How you like them 441's J?

 

[Chris Zautner]

Yes! I been wanting to see one of your 441c builds! Thank you for posting.

I like how they run but there heavy and bulky and a pia to work on.

I tried a different approach porting this one so I hope it runs good but if not I got a spare bullet.

Should be a nice looking saw for the classifieds.

Sidetracked but putting it together now.

 

[paragonbuilder]

Do you do anything with the stratos J?

 

[drf256]

That's a load of upper transfer area.

Great saws when ported but Stihls biggest PITA to work on.

Now I don't get into anywhere as many saw as y'all do and I hated my first 441...so much so that I bought another one just to smash the heck out of it in anger and learn them. I'm a little hard headed and tend to smash stuff in anger( no good ever comes from it but I am what I am).
They do get easier when you "forget everything you've ever learned" from working on all the Stihl saws you've rebuilt previous.

Jason I would love to run it with my 440 that Al built. Might be a nice vid at Dans GTG ? What's that gonna be like 10 saws your sending ?

 

[jmssaws]

Here's the first cuts,brand new so it porky at 13.5k . The wood was a standing dead ash and it's petrified,extremely hard and slow.

No.
Not really sure what to do to them so I leave them be.

I wish I Could make a 044 run like these will. Smooth and fast.
I'm getting better working on them so I just mildly hate them now.

 

[jmssaws]

I'm gonna run it a few tanks to make sure it's OK then I'm going to sell it and build the other one I have.

 

[RI Chevy]

It does sound good J. Nice and smooth, almost like an Mtronic.

Isn't 441 mtronic ???

 

[RI Chevy]

Lol. Not sure. Are all 441's mtronic?

 

[Time's Standing Stihl]

Newer ones are mtronic. They came out regular carb first
