New 70cc class dyno day

That'd be a good thing.

It tis..

You have the patience of a saint dealing with some of those thick headed
FANBOYS
They don't bother much, unless the mouth starts running where they thunk I may not see....
I like the guys that disagree with the dyno cuz when they ran x saw it felt much faster than y saw.

Or their brother in laws boss said saw X would spank saw Y so the dyno has to be broked

Lol, just wait until I get time... I plan on stihl vs husky in the opposite group... just so I can condition myself to swim the river of tears
Shit, that 500i goes into valve float. It would be impressive hell if you could get it to carry out a bit longer.

Wait... For the record I don't like the tech, but I'm impressed
2nd start out of the box, was staying really rich. After a while it will get more rpm. I've seen 14k before on other 500i
 
Joe have you done a 461 or old school 660? i'd like to see torque number for those compared to these newer saws.
Never a stock 461.

But have a stock 660, and 395.

Ported the 461,500i put out more tq than stock 660/395. And about 3hp.

Redfin 661 stroker is at the top of the power, followed by tm066 for the ported big saws.

Jon has a 500i gotta have some use by now.

i bet, my 660 stock was a sissy for its size. its a bad dude now though. i really like the 461, i just cant see the clutch taking that long bar for long even if it is ported. i does pretty well with a 32 but have to keep the chain sharp to avoid clutch slippage.
 
Lotta those AS/OPE guys don't think about the clutch, AV's, or the oiler. Yeah that whiz-bang ported 70cc class saw can now pull more bar.......................but can it oil it (and can the clutch last for more than a few cookie cutting sessions)? Can the AV's handle the strain of supporting that long b/c during felling cuts (where it's horizontal-ish)?
