We both know he is nothing but a bumbling idiot when it comes to modifying chainsaws, not a thing comes from his mouth that makes a lick of sense as far as port work or increasing performance . The best I ever heard him say was to reduce squish by gasket delete and then use black silicone to seal the cylinder to the crankcase, it will provide an extra .003 of squish clearance. He makes it sound like rocket science to his unknowing followers and his act schitc of the Uncle Harvey gets him many more recruits that hang on his every word without ever questioning his superior intelect. Harvey did do some logging in years past, always used Husqvarna chainsaws as far back as I can remember, he should have stayed in the woods .
According to him he spent his nights in woods sleeping on canvas..... Where is he from?
 
I don't claim to be knowledgeable when it comes to woods mods. I'm in the just get a bigger saw camp.

But, I think Mastermind has some street cred. I know Treemonkey, Timberwolf, others have built some nice running saws. They may be dead for all I know.

But, you have to keep up with it as saws change . I don't know any good way to do it other than buy some top ends and test them.



I don't know a damn thing about modding a saw, but I bet I could start a you tube channel and convince some morons that I do.
Mastermind loves to have sunshine blown up his azz, but he is honest and builds good stuff he backs up. Treemonkey is very good. Timberwolves is as well, but I don't think he is in the game anymore.
buckin billy ray has him "port" saws for him, and he raves about them. maybe you could reach out to BBR and see if he could help you get ahold of him? but then again that BBR is a bit goofy himself lol
BBR is a putz too and is basically helping IH scam. Plus his whole friendly Canadian shtick makes me want to vommit.
 
Yes ***. It is a very long thread from a few years ago. A lot of what was talked about then is being rehashed here.
I know Randy was pissed at someone over on that site but it was not my concern. He (Randy) did a 395 for me years ago and I was pleased as pie. I had these new ones last spring that need some "tickling" but it just never came to be.

I'd be very tempted to travel and catch harvey off guard in person getting it on hidden video then expose him by putting it on utube. I watched a few of his videos but quickly stopped once I noticed a pattern of little to no real educational information, bad information with the bulk of his mouth spewing fantasy builds and having 0 real tools to do any real work or the fact he never shows himself ever running saws let alone his builds working. I know I have read several horror stories about his work being trash, swapping chi junk parts in to steal the oem or simply never doing anything and keeping the saw. If folks would contact his county sheriff with the serial #s of said kept saws to file charges this crap would stop quickly.
Many of these utube mouths get full of themselves to the point they start asking for things from viewers and give the gifts full praise to encourage it more while mixing in attempts to talk about services they offer to others in the hopes random folks and businesses will start sending them gifts to review and business. Once that starts they can not handle the load, forget whats what and just keep things or get hooked on alcohol/drugs.
Youtube is full of idiots that don't have a clue what they are talking about, but the morons of the world just lap it up.
 
Yep. Claims to have been building saws his whole life. A couple of years ago he was quoted as saying “compression is made in the muffler, you don’t need to have higher compression to make good power. We all know that“.
A year ago, he said “we all know that compression is king”.

Lol. Wtf. Which is it?
If your not sure what case compression is or cylinder compression is, it could be both or neither but it must be something to do with compression or suck and blow 🤷 🤔 😉
 
Ol Harvey hates us FORUM guys, some of us went to his YouTube channel and started calling him out in the comments. The BBR knights in shining tinfoil tried to stick up for him and buckin billy channel staff dropped the old ban hammer on some people who mentioned it in his comment sections.

Billy isn't going to touch that subject with a 1000 foot pole because he doesn't want to get anything on him that tarnishs his image... didn't buckin get a 7900 from Harvey recently?
 
How can we tell if we are the mumbling idiots or them?
