7900 woods ported saw...finished!!

[gink595]

I just recieved video of my 7900, and that it is done for the most part. I have to confuss a mistake I made when I posted the 7900-681 comparo, I said the wood was Ash but I was told it is Poplar, I'm sure I'll catch flack for it but it was a misunderstanding on my part and I posted it wrong. But after saying that the saws still were tested in the same wood with the same bar and chain, it's poplar like Andy pointed out. Sorry for being misleading I really feel like a TWIT about that

Back to the 7900, it is tuned rich and has a fresh ring in it, so it might be a couple tanks before it gets leaned up a little. The heavy duty filter still needs to be put on it, but I wanted to see if there was a perforamnce difference betweent the stock set up and the HD filter. It was run with the stock set up.

From the 2 cuts made one being stock and the other ported I calced a 35% gain. We're going to screw with it somemore this saturday and see if it gets a bit stronger, if not it will be a good time of BS'in and playing with saws, I hope my belly is up for it

[blsnelling]

Will you still be milling with it?

 

[John D]

Nice work! What a runner! That thing runs like a scalded dog! I thought 7900's didnt respond well to porting?

 

[WoodChuck'r]

Sick. Just plain sick.

Rock on Gink. Eff yeah!!!

No it definatly isn't bouncing off of the rev limiter, but I think the rev limited coil got bounced in the trash can

 

[gink595]

No milling duty is all over for it... Hopefully I have enough will power to keep the 066 stock for that kinda stuff... I'd rather blow the 066 than the 7900!

I think 35% shows it responded well!! I can't wait to get my greedy little mitts all over it.

 

[gink595]

I know my wood.

:bang: LOL

 

[CHEVYTOWN13]

The Dolmar Bar is open at the AS SALOON!

Dolmar Gang having a family gathering tonight! Drinking, food and cervezas, maybe a little green

That saw is going to rip once dialed in.

Sounds like it is on the limiter, but only EC can tell ya what he did. Looks nasty strong though, but what else do you expect.:biggrinbounce2: How many hours of work does he have in it? Hopefully I can try it out someday at a GTG.

That thing is insane,it sounds like its going to take off and fly away! What a revver for an 80cc saw!

Yup definitely not the limiter. What coil is big E using? I know of a few coils that will fit as long as you re index the flywheel. As of now that's just not something I want to do on a work saw. Can you run the saw flat out? or do you need to stop every now and then to let her cool down? I do that with my 372, if I don't she'll get hot.

You can hear the limiter on my saw in this video. It sounds totally different than franks saw, you can really hear it a 47 sec into the video.
