Dyno tested....Mastermind's ported 261cm vs Stock 261cm Gotta see this one.

[Dieselshawn]

Dyno days are always fun.

Everyone wanted to see what their mods have done to their trucks.

BBQ'd chicken for lunch.

Never boring.

 

[Mastermind]

I'm beat but got the testing done tonight. My rpm sensor wouldn't read past 11500 rpms. I'd still like to test up to 13000 if I can get a shaft rpm sensor that will read that high.
Wow Randy this is a hot 261cm.

I like this graph.

I like this graph.

Heck who wouldn't??? Lol!! That's all the proof anyone would need

 

[bag-o-donuts]

I get that numbers are only part of the story, but this seems valuable to me. Especially if one did a comparison type dyno run-off... also, it's nice that the stock reading jives with Stihl's claimed number.

As I have stated previously, the gains are nice, but it is the plateau of power from 10,000 to 11,500 that really impresses me.

Looking forward to that in the next larger size!

Havent heard and dont wanna bother to ask as I know Monkey is busy enough.

 

[MustangMike]

I hear ya, but I keep searching for a thread that is not there yet!

 

[Mastermind]

Chad is pretty busy too.

But I'll be getting to the 461 soon. I do apologize for any delays.

I hate making excuses....but need to share what has gone on here.

Before I left to go to Maryland, someone chased the cows across the road with a truck while they were drinking. One of the cows tore through the fence, and has been out ever since. The owner of the cow is 97 years old, and cannot chase her. He made a deal with us on the land and the cow. He just wants to wash his hands of the whole mess.

She completely destroyed my neighbor's garden. Now she only comes out of the woods at night. Jon and I have been working on a small fenced area to contain her. We managed to lure her in there once, but when she realized her was trapped, she tore through the fence again.

Needless to say, this has taken us away from saws.....

Our d9 is top of the line. A/C, Pioneer stereo, gps, the whole nine yards. I move wood chips and build and tear down piles which seems redundant but no 2 pushes are the same and can get hairy 5 stories in the air on a bluff edge!! Its a peaceful, quite, mind clearing job that I enjoy. Listen to Rush and Shawn and other right wings slam Obama on the stereo all day and ponder chainsaws in my mind!!! lol
