Looks like I'll be getting my new saw Thursday.
I'll bet it's loud!
Everything I've seen that Alan has worked on is loud.
I like loud.

HUH WHAT SPEAK UP. Loud =

Hey Chet, how many pounds of boost is your truck running?
Range...

 

[jetmd]

Normal cruise speed 8lbs, she is set fairly conservative max of 50lbs.

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

Morning Chet.

 

[jetmd]

Hey Kenneth, hope all is well with you and your family. Off to work!

 

[67L36Driver]

Morning Chet & Kenneth!

Morning Midlanders!

More pond inventory today I hope.[emoji6]

Lol..
"Conservative"

Exhaust temps when pulling a trailer?

I need perspective..

Morning gents. Something on Columbia, MO CL that I've never seen before. A hydraulic chainsaw. Interesting. Would seem rather cumbersome with two hydraulic lines coming off the back. Doesn't look very practical. Maybe for a processor build or something I suppose. Have a good one.

" The CS05 and CS06 weights in at under 7 pounds but is capable of 8 to 10 horsepower of cutting power, producing almost 2x the power of a gas engine chain saw with half the weight."

Wow!

Wow!

High flow hydraulics lots money and take lots of HP to run them.

How sorry will I be if I put a saw back together without the base gasket, and my squish is only .012? I can increase it to .015 with a piece of aluminum can, cut to the shape of the gasket. OEM gasket is .020 by itself.

I'd rather be close to .020", .012" is too tight and .015" is almost too tight.

 

[SteveSS]

Roger that. I'll look for another gasket material.

Depends on how hot a program you run. Seen a DP tuner give around 40 lbs on stock turbo with wastegate unplugged. EGT were warm above 1500 on a long hard pull like coming up the mountain to the Cumberland Plateau on 40

Happy Birthday to any fellow Marines out there...

Normal highway travel, mine runs 4-5 lbs boost and ex temp runs about 550.
When pulling a tractor up a grade on a gooseneck, I've seen it reach only 21-22 pounds and 700 -750 ex temp.
But for the most part even loaded, the boost is under 10.Not sure how high it'll reach though, since I've never needed more than about 1/2 - 3/4 throttle.

Where is the pyrometer at? Boost sounds normal and egts are a bit low unless the pyro is in the downpipe.
