Custom machined billet head (Fundraiser For Adirondackstihl)

[Jacob J.]

What ever happend to parrisw, did he get **** canned from here?

He's big into Crossfit and guns now, and hotrod cars. He's got a pretty sweet Triumph that he did a lot of work to, and a newer BMW.

You can put a removable head on a horizontal cylinder saw pretty easily. Stihl made a prototype version of the 075 called the "050 Super", which essentially had an 075 jug with a removable head, and a lighter weight, single-ring piston. Saw-King had one in his shop for years. A lot of the Macs had removable heads. The D-44 and 44/55 Supers had removable heads.

Any pics or info on the current whereabouts of this prototype ?

From what I can remember- it was sold to a collector back east. It was an ebay sale- I think it went for around $700.

toroidal shaped combustion chamber is what ive been building for race saws lately.

Toroidal???, does that come with fries and a drink??? I better get reading!!!

Always liked those race saws, they look like a piece of art.

What would a race saw like that in the pic cost??? What cc is it???

It can get stupid expensive. A guy might drop 5k on a saw, the work and a chain.

If you refer to the pics I posted, that's an MS880.
Started life at 123cc. I'm guessing with reduced squish and tighter combustion chamber (only a guess.....thinking higher compression) that the total cc's were actually slightly reduced.
I could be TOTALLY off base here.

They run them without any air filters?? Too restrictive???

Pretty cool!!!

 

[HuskStihl]

Between this head, and the tuned pipe I'm planning on winning, my 445 is gonna be the shizzle!
I bid $288

Tightening the squish doesn't change displacement. Silly man.

Usually only three cuts, so a filter might make a guy lose some time.

Aren't you reducing combustion chamber volume?

 

[Mastermind]

Aren't you reducing combustion chamber volume?

Yes.......but that doesn't change displacement. You will still have the same bore X stroke.

 

[Adirondackstihl]

Yes.......but that doesn't change displacement. You will still have the same bore X stroke.

Touché

But would that be different if we were talking about small block V8's?
Wouldn't increasing or decreasing head volume affect displacement ?

No sir ,displacement is based off bore and stroke ,you have to shortren or lengthen the rod ,or bore the cylinder to change displacement .

Edit : A different crankshaft with longer or shorter throw can also be used to change displacement .

Okay then.....
I'm tarded
Carry on

Oh your killin me. This head is to go on a 288.

Changing rod length doesn't affect displacement.... Only changing bore or stroke.

Bore x Bore x Stroke x .7854 x number of cylinders = displacement

Yeah but making a separate head reduces the amount of flatulence you can get into the combustion chamber prior to compression and ignition.
