My red light is the loudest I've heard, it's 100% the flywheel.

I had worked on that chain a good bit so I could video it with a 36" noodling and those are the first cuts, also I'm in the middle of nowhere so I didn't expect to find a big nail in a tree, I had to stop the video there cause there was bad language right after the sparks. LolTHAT'S IT! That high whistle sound...My 460 and buddy's 391 have the exact same sound. You're sure it's the flywheel that causes it? I don't want to fix it; actually think it sounds kinda cool, but I'm just curious.
Nice fireworks there at the end! We call that the 'spark of death', meaning you just killed your chain. We cut a lot on Poor Mountain in VA, so named because it's so rocky it's like bucking in a gravel quarry. It may look like leaves and loam under your log, but rest assured, there's a rock lying patiently in wait to jump up into your chain!
I still haven't fixed that chain, I'm still to heartbroken to look at it.lolDANG !!!!
Thats a long chain to have to file after hitting some steel
