Inside the MS462C - Snellerized Style

[Frank Rizzo]

Which other mods do you think would work here? I’m curious.

He has already opened the muffler, he advanced the timing, and did machine work that’s likely gonna increase the compression 20 psi.
1st pic stock ... 2nd “flow-enhanced” 241c stock to a hot woods that should pull 12500 in the cut according to my calculations lol

if ya want em to rev ya can’t go coo-coo with da compression imho !!!

Yah ... I don’t have one of each on hand to compare so yes I’m speculating .... ???

That is pretty slick looking. Adds case capacity though.

My anxiety level is through the roof seeing your new saw torn apart like that. I wouldn’t think twice about one of my older saws, but brand new? Have you noticed any shorter life of the saws that have been ported, or is it about the same as a stock saw?

I'm used to it, lol. A brand new saw is the best time to port them. I've voice a lot of warranties

After port work

.. my guess is Runtime per tank will be diminished with this mod

A lot of people like to throw this theory around but I've never seen it tested. Regardless, I build saws to make power not fuel mileage.

If I had the wood, I would have seen how many cuts I could make with a stock saw and then how many after porting.

Remember, run time doesn't count. It's the number of cuts. A ported saw is going to get the same amount of work done in a shorter amount of time.

It “wood” be nice to see ... 1) stock , 2) ported , 3) gutted stratos ... only by real-world testing shall we know the truth !

the most important part of porting a chainsaw is changing those spikes, lol

I think a 65 page oil test with jug temps and thousands of wasted pieces of wood would be better ?

Don't you agree ?

Looks like a blue-bird day !

When you delete the strato do you unhook the fresh air butterfly or what?

it's a split carb system, so there's nothing to disconnect.

[crabby cooter]
