two mods you can do to increase power without porting! this really works!

Iron horse. I’m 36 I have a degree in law and am also a qualified quantity surveyor. For 27 years I suffered from poorly controlled diabetes and as a result of diabetic complications my kidneys failed and I have also been reduced to 6 % sight. I had to give up my cushy well paying job but I didn’t mind as it brought me back to my first & only love which is the timber industry. I recently passed all my felling tickets. The point of my message being to never let your health stop you from what you love to do otherwise a big part of you will have already died. Best videos on you tube.

Hey - this is my first visit to your channel - I was signposted here by Buckin Billy Ray talking about your saws. I have enjoyed meeting you and hearing you talk about what you build, and what you do; thank you for sharing your know;edge. Like BRS you seem to have a gentle philosophy on,life, - which is all too short in supply nowadays, and welcome to hear. All strength to you! 💪

[@kingcosworth2643]

The best gasket compound for these motors and motorcycle motors is the Loctite 515. The compound is anaerobic, so it doesn't dry until it's bolted up, it can sit there forever on the surface and stay wet so there is no rush to bolt up. Also because anything that gets pushed out from between the surfaces will get washed away because it won't dry so it won't mess up the flow of your ports or block small passages, brilliant stuff.

[@theironhorse6600]

Great tip! I’ll try it!

[@johnropeleski6006]

I only use 515,used it for years.

[@PopeyeKF4LBG]

Permatex aviation gasket maker is another awesome choice... Air cooled engines expand and contract a good bit... I'll give that other a try!

[@dannelson6301]

I just wanted to send along my sincere thanks for clearly presenting the two non-porting mods. Namely, the base gasket deletion and stock muffler modification, as discussed in this video. My old (very old) Stihl 031 never seemed to have the snus I thought it should have had. It bogged easily, even with a sharp chain and properly filed rakers. Now, after performing these two simple mods, the old girl wades through Red Fir like nobody’s business. PS: Your handle, “The Ironhorse” makes me smile. An old-timer that I used to hang with would always say this when making a point about something. He’d tell you a story, pause a bit, and then say “Iron Horse”. When I asked him about it he said, “You know ... iron horse ... no sh-t”. Anyway, thanks again for all you give us on your channel.

[@aaronpowell4885]

Definitely a sharp looking saw! I got the g660 pro a couple weeks ago and agree, after a basic tear down and reassemble to check it over, they've Definitely made some improvements over the "blue saws" from years past👍 squish on mine was .028 so I left the gasket for now. great to hear you're doing better!!

[@tomsommer54]

Great video. Beautiful weld job on the muffler. I’m Tom Sommer I live in Northwest Arkansas. I bought a Norwood sawmill about 8 months ago so I decided to log my 40 acre property. That’s what got me into chainsaw. I have a echo cs 590 24 inch bar. It was the best I could do after paying for the sawmill. It a Norwood HD36 V-2 with hydraulics. I needed the hydraulics. I’m 68.

Thank you for your videos. I have a 55 rancher that I put a highway cylinder and pop up piston on. It runs great. I also have a g372xp. Now I'm going to to modify it like the one in this video. You have taught me alot about saws and now I have the confidence to modify them myself.

[@patthesoundguy]

You are certainly looking like you are feeling better. I was wondering earlier today how you were doing.. I'm happy to see you are well. You answered a question that's been ratting around in my head lately, about if cutting the pipe flush in the exhaust can or having some pipe in like you explained was the right plan. I was going to experiment some with that and I still might when I test the different locations of the pipe. I had a chuckle to myself when I was checking the squish on the original cylinder on the little 34cc Poulan 2150 I'm playing with.The squish was so big the solder diddnt even dent lol. It still pulls awesome after porting and I actually ran it with a 36" bar and it worked great! I ported the exact same saw last year for my stepson but I used the aftermarket cylinder and the squish was right where it should be and I can definitely tell the difference. Proper squish and better compression on the little saw helps a ton.

[@dirtytsfarm2141]

You've given lots of us the confidence to try new things. I mostly play with throw away consumer stuff cause it comes to me for the right price and I don't feel bad if I screw it up.

[@humblerojo6300]

It’s also important to avoid seed oils like canola and soybean oil just as diligently as sugar and carbs. Partly rancid seed oils have an impact on insulin resistance regardless of what your out of the loop Doctor says. Best advice, just go full on no carb, carnivore and you’ll be a thin, lean machine within a year just by eating like humans always have. A pound or two of beef, bacon, butter, bone broth and eggs, eggs, eggs everyday.

[@roberteicke2540]

I really enjoy your videos to the point that I have the confidence to perform the mods shown in this video. Glad that your health has improved. I'm a 70 y/o operating a blue G372XP and considering purchasing a G260 "for light work" Thank You, Sir!

Hi, a friend of mine with diabetes discovered that strenuous exercise improved health in a surprising way. Eating a little less and moving a little more is a good and proven tip. Health is among the most important things in life. Good channel that I want to continue watching. Greetings from Sweden.

[@garymcmullin2292]

the aging of the body is to me a diploma of life, you earned it, embrace it and be thankful for the story it tells. Nice saw. The orange 372 Holzfforma I bought (build date October 2022) did not have the well detailed cylinder...I looked...pretty rough inside and definitely no chamfering. I suspect the better prepared cylinder is a feature offered as an upgrade and part of that "pro" package of the carbon fiber version.

[@zachmetcalf3892]

I've found if you cut that pipe about 4.75" and push it to the back corner of the muffler above the exhaust port it pulls like mad.

[@Finom1]

We love you Ironhorse:) God Bless you for sharing your life and wisdom with your loving community:)

I enjoyed watching you and learned a couple of things. I’m getting motivated to do the muffler hack on the Husky 357.

[@organikness]

Perhaps try the carnivore diet? As a life long diabetic (who refused to take medication) the carnivore diet changed my life in the most indescribable ways. Weight, cognition, skin, blood-sugar, energy, teeth.... and so much more. What was equally fascinating, was analyzing what was happening in my body during each 'stage', as I am a trained nutritionist. If you would like me to point you in a the direction of some literature, give me a holla in this comment. Also, for KZbin content, check out Mikhaila Peterson's TedX talk for some real-world experience, and Dr. Berg and High Intensity Health for the science. Cood luck brother

[@CaliforniaCarpenter7]

I gotta say, the faux carbon fiber does look good! And I respect you for giving credit to the 50 class. They are the unsung heroes of the chainsaw World, but there is a reason that big box stores usually only sell chainsaws up to 59cc. You East Coast guys are too much sometimes, though. A firewood man in the High Sierras needs at least 95cc, although the majority of work can be handled by the 70 class. My little Gen 1 55 Rancher still gets whipped out all the time and it is a chainsaw that gained 25% in the cut after a muffler mod!

[@skyhawk409]

Man that was the best video iv seen,you had me in fits ,barrel down mod and talking squish then cold shoulder joke,I did a similar mod to my yz250 just the other way,2.1 alloy base plate ,but then machine new combustion and some squish to get 15.1comp .keep up the good work cheers.

our son went a year trying to find out what his health problem was. Wearing a coat in the summer because he was cold, tired all the time, etc. Found out he was diabetic. Studied everything about diet and went on a strict Carnivore diet. Eats nothing but steak, bacon, chicken, pork, uses ghee butter for cooking or flavoring. Took off 80 pounds, he's 6'1" and was 280 now 195. Has totally eliminated insulin and metforman. No longer using any drugs. He's now 42 and studying to be a dietician. Says he never felt better. Just my 2 cents on diabetes.

[@allanwells4886]

Thanks for sharing Ironhorse. My son recently dropped in a 66cc chinese chainsaw that he picked up for $70. I was really surprised at how well it went. Apparently the old bloke who owned it for years never used it. The air filter looks pretty 'dodgy' but that's no problem to rectify. I think the Chinese are trying hard to improve their act; time will tell I guess.

Hi Ironhorse. Love your videos! I have a Stihl 881 (bought 2022 less than 10 hrs on saw) with bark box that I’m using for milling with Alaskan mill. Saw not running great in my novice opinion. West coast saw advised me not to port the saw for milling. But is there anything else I can do to improve performance? I've heard that replacing the Ignition Module / Coil with one from an ms170 would increase rpms. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

[@IRONHORSE427RACING]

I know this is what, 8 months old now but It just popped up in my feed. I have no problem with these made in CHINA knock offs. A young man on my Crew bought one last spring and brought it to me to see what it might need to perform out in the Mountain West where we fall. My Wife and I own the company and our son works for us and we have 5 other employees. 4 of us do all the falling , we are a small environmental footprint company that falls all our Timber manually the old fashioned way , a man and a good chainsaw. We own 2 skidders but one is really a 4x4 front wheel assist European style Ford Tractor with Forestry Winch and skidding set up on the rear and a log Grapple in place of the front loader. We use this small very maneuverable tractor to get into where we're falling and skid the logs out to where we have the Regular Big Skidder and it skids the logs to the landing. We have our own Log Truck and we have a small John Deere Track hoe that we converted to forestry use with a log Grapple on it in place of the bucket to move sort and pile the skidded and bucked logs. Our Truck Driver (who has worked with me since I was a kid Falling on the West Coast ) is also a helluva mechanic, and can operate all the equipment we own like all our employees can. it's important for us to have this versatility. Anyway This good young kid thought he would try one of these power heads on the job so we fixed his muffler first thing, so it breathed right but is still Forest Service legal, we put the wrap around handle bar kit and we fit a pair of our custom made dogs on it, replaced the on/off switch with a good quality American made one, put a bigger Air Filter set up on it and that's about it and he brought it to work. I'm happy to say while he still likes using one of my personal Custom Ported Husqvarna 390 XP powerheads this saw has performed good so far, we replaced the starter rope with a little bigger rope of better quality, put a Bar Cover from a Husky we had laying in here waiting for this winter when I will tear it down and give it a complete re fresh rebuild. But other than that it starts good even when hot, and has a good power band. I don't know how long it's gonna last but we will see. I've been running Husky 390-395's since the early 80's when Stihl started to go up in price and down in quality and haven't gone or looked back since. Sadly we lost our local Saw Shop Guy to the China Virus so all us local loggers are forced to ship out our stuff or drive over an hour one way to get it worked on. But I will stick with My 390's that are fully ported and re worked when right out of the box ...(I like the 390 a bit better than the 395 because of where the power is that's all) otherwise I like each equally I just prefer to carry my old school 390 XP to the woods.....never had one yet let me down on the job in 15 years so that's proof right there they were built right from the get go. I actually found out our old saw shop guy who was a Husqvarna Dealer had a dozen each 390 XP and 395 XP that were brand new in the box but we're old stock....these were all built in Europe and shipped to the US. He would do that, buy a supply of good powerheads when he heard they were changing things and sell the good old stock to me and a few other of his good customers.....he bought a half dozen ea. of the New Electronic 550xp mk 2, the 572xp, and he was one of the first guys to get a dozen of the new 592 XP powerheads.....they all sold like hot cakes when his wife had her auction and he got list or better price for each of them. I was going to try a 592 after he ported and re tuned it but he got sick and never got to do it so his wife sold us 3 of the new old stock already ported ready to go 390's so I'm set for several years anyway !

Just found your channel today, had heard about you through Buckins comments. Good Vid but I'm curious to hear your viewers comments on these saws. I have a big Husky. 2 smaller Sthils but in a year or so will be in the market for a new one. Cheers Aussie Jeff Moore

Asa 20 + yr motorcycle tech the Sealer was still to thick! Just tap your finger and make it look like felt just to where it’s sticking and pulling little hairs u should be able to see through it. When u pull it apart it’ll clean faster and you’ll have to tap em apart they’ll stick like glue. I’m motorcycles it’s getting fairly rare to use a gasket at all. Unless needed for clearance

I ordered a OEM part chain adjuster tensioner. Same problem won't work gears won't mess up. It's the casting in the block. I'm a machinist. Journeyman tool and die.

nice simple mods. I think that's a great muffler design - can probably do it on many saws. like the factory one but better.

So good to see you feeling better in yourself.

I watch Buck'n Billy's channel and he mentioned you were in upstate new york on the episode where you mailed him a 327 you improved for him. I have the same saw since 2007 new. I love the saw. The closest notable town I am near is Boonville, New York. Are we close? Would love to bring my saw to you! Truly love this saw! 😇
