I know you've run it.... probably not in wood, but any indications and expectations??

I will be making some test cuts with it this week. Should that go well, I will giving it to a friend to put some run time on it. I know WOT RPMs aren't what cut wood, but I'm optimistically encouraged to see it tune as high as 15,150 and still have some 4-stroking.

He did not. The saw has perfect manners as is. I'm hesitant to mess with it. Idle is perfect. Throttle response is instant. Tuning is easy.

OK Brad, you don't want to mod a carb that you know is 'working'. However - Rich, if you have a modded carb to loan Brad, he just might appreciate the opportunity to try something different. You know, stock carb compared to a modded carb? That way he can still have his stock carb to fall back on. It also allows him to compare the two carbs on a known saw.
I would love to try a modded carb, just don't want to take a chance messing up what's already running great, and not mine.
She's done, and lookin' mean!
Sure beats what I started with!
Wow, just WOOOOW ....
Keep the saw , how much for the covers and the dogs - those should help scare some trees to death and fall over by themselves!
Saying the saw looks cool is just wrong as she is burning up just sitting there!
Great work!

It looks like it MIGHT give a 346 a run for it's money... LOL
That saw looks great! I wouldn't mind having a ported 7900/10 but I may just pickup a ported 390xp and call it good. I DO like the feel of the 6400-7900 family of saws though.

Thinking about it, the postage back and forth would probably pay for a cheap Chinese carb that you could mod. Putting Rich on the spot to loan you a carb seems like a silly suggestion, sorry I brought up the idea now

Not a bad idea Terry....I think it's good!! Brad does in depth comparisons and is straight up on things. If it good he says so and if it's bad...he say so....that's what's needed to see if they really work. My testing is rather seat of the pants and unscientific. Most call it the Redneck way!!! Lol

Nate, I believe your carb if first gen....I have made some improvements since than to make it tune like like oem.
It would work great since 1 gens usually ran a little rich.

@blsnelling if you want mine I will send it out today
I'll defer to Rich's recommendation.

There's nothing wrong with 1st Gen, but newer tune more like oem and easier to tune. Brad I will get you the carb I have and Nate, I will send you an updated one.....I think you'll notice a difference. Nate if your going to put it on a ported saw let me know, I'll go bigger!!
no porting for me. I am building a 7910H stock. I dont use one enough to justify porting. I try to stick to my 421 as much as possible. No splitter anymore so everything i cut has to fit through the processor and that limits me to 20-22" if they are perfect straight with no knots.There's nothing wrong with 1st Gen, but newer tune more like oem and easier to tune.
