Swapping my 455 rancher to another member for another 590. Since it isn't under warranty I may do heavy mods on that one and just leave the other one at MM until I know I'm not going to ruin a good saw I depend on.

That's pretty cool, muffler mod, gasket delete and pull caps and tune you should be set. Or get crazy and port and throw a 620P ignitionin it...

Well I did the muffler mod yesterday... it's not the prettiest but it flows a lot better. Pulling a 28" bar in hickory just as fat as the bar is long it did great. I'm very pleased with the results and because of that have plans on the gasket delete. But as I said will proly do that to the new to me saw. I have been hanging out at a friends small engine shop when I'm not working it trees and he is helping me tear the saws apart because I turn wrenches just never on 2 stroke before let alone chainsaws.

Took a couple of pictures. My first ever MM. Need to pull caps and retune. Going to try and cut some tomorrow and see how she does.

Looks good, if you haven't thrown it back together maybe put two more holes in on the "sides" or where you don't have holes now, I don't think you will be over doing it. Let us know what the outcome is!!!

Well I took it easy for now and left the pipe intact. I fired it up for a few seconds and it sounded good. I will see how she cuts and decide if I want to do more. When I get to cut I will try and grab a quick vid.

I'll be by myself with my phone so we shall see how it turns out lol. I've also thought about grabbing another 590 or 620 just not sure what I would sell.

Heck I keep thinking about building something from all aftermarket parts just to see how it would run...maybe a husky of some sort.

my old 066 is only worth about 400 or 450..... so a 620 is probably out :)
