Husqvarna 51 Gets A Ported 55 Cylinder 

Thanks!

Got a 51 given to me that needed a cylinder. Didn’t port it, but set it up without the base gasket. It’s a solid little saw. Nice one to add to my collection of Stihl’s.

Bellhopper, God Bless and Protect you and your loving family:) I love spending time with you:)

Thanks for sharing, it’s always interesting to see how you build saws

Another ripper from the hopper bench! 👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏🙏

Nice build Hopper! Thanks for sharing.

That’s awesome. One of my favorite saws is the 55. Great size for working.

Sounds like a beast sir i have no doubt.

I have a 50 that was giving to me scored to hell. I converted it to the 55 and ported it. Wouldve like to go a little farther with the open port transfers but was leary. Only had 20 degrees of blowdown.

I’d love to buy a ported 51 if you ever have another!

Those Stay-Silv silver brazing rods are really nice quality too… it’s great stuff! Stumbled across some with some shop tools and equipment that a guy wanted hauled off… I’m glad I went through everything and that I didn’t just toss everything… I hated tossing off the old drum cutting lathe but I couldn’t find anyone who had any current use for it???

Great stuff!

Nice job buddy

Thats a neat little saw, did they also come with a old closed port?

Heck yeah! That's killer!

Great saw and a solid build my friend. What size pin sprocket are you using? See ya Saturday my friend. ❤️🌲🪓👊🏻🙏🏻

She going to be a good cutting saw buddy

I need 2 of those built lol

I know that smell I burned 3" of my beard off soldering a water heater under a house once🤣🤣

Nicely done. Did u put it in some wood?

Why didn't you go with the closed port cylinder, and the pop up piston?

Hi. it can also be replaced with a stihl 028 type piston without any changes?

Hey cylinder meteor itally do husqvarna 55 good kits ?

Hey bellhopper! I've taken a little Hiatus from RU-vid but question for you a Husqvarna 351 in pretty good if not almost mint condition from a reputable person. He wants 350 but said he will take $3 25. All my buddies are breaking my stones saying how it's not worth it but I don't know man what's your opinion? And what size bar you think I could put on there to rip some wood? By the way I hope everything with your back is going well! It's been that long! LOL

What % silver do you use for the exhaust?

On a Husqvarna 55 can you put a 61 piston and cylinder on it
