ported dolmar 9010/solo 694

[Hedgerow]

@Black Dog Chainsaw has 3 9010's and I've messed with to various degrees.

@Hedgerow has a ported 9010.

Fixt...

I am looking hard for one of these now and selling a ported 394 to fund the purchase. I will be getting one if possible and it will be ported by mastermind

I've ported both saws, the 394 is superior design except for the solid intake block and it's a little bit heavier. Still much better AV, bigger tank, and easier to get parts. Most important is that a properly ported 394 will stomp on even an above average ported 9010.

Yep..

If the 394 had an inboard clutch, it would be my choice for the mill.
As far as oil output, the 9010 oils like the Exon Valdeze.

I believe the beauty of the ported 9100/9110 is the power to weight ratio, and that the 394s are really in a different category in that respect.

If my ported 460 were not such a good running saw, I would likely desire a ported 9100.

They're both heavy..

394 is outboard clutch.

 

[rocco490]

yes 394 395 are outboard clutch

 

[Hedgerow]

394 is outboard clutch.

Correct, this is why I have a 9010, and not a 394.
9010 is a beautiful and friendly inboard.
Brain to finger misfire on my part.

any updates on the saw 166

I stopped in to see Bret about 10 days ago. I did see Darla but Bret made me sign a Confidentiality Agreement before he would let me in the shop.

Real saws have outboard clutches.

Excuse me while I lay this down right here...

They're both heavy..

So are they close to the 17.3lbs PHO dry that I have seen in writing only?

Didnt realize they had 42 stroke.

 

[srcarr52]

All designed for the shorter bar crowd. 288, 394/5, 2100 clutches are pretty bullet proof.

Same bore as an 064 IIRC, but 5 more cc..
Loooong stroke.

They're lighter than a 395, but honestly, once you hang a 36" bar on em' I can't tell a few pounds apart.

 

[srcarr52]

9010 has a 52mm bore, 42mm stroke.

394 has a 56mm bore 38mm stroke.

I know some crazy guy that bolted a 395BB cylinder (58mm) on a 9010. I'm not doing that again anytime soon.

 

[Cut4fun]

Been researching one. Is why I am finding info on them.

I remember racing against one at the fair in the work saw gas classes. He was woods ported too. But got him in the 3 cuts 10x10. Was good running saws. But that is where I left that memory till few days ago.
