We ran out of space on the SD card and missed out on the stocker ms461. Probably just as well. "Wooda" embarrassed itself I am betting. We did run the 044, since it was already barred up, against the stocker 461 in the next recording session to get an idea. You will be able to view that meeting later if all goes well.
A nice little saw-off for comparison purposes.
Using a 33" Oregon lw bar with my full complement Windsor chain. Still trying to get the inland grind dialed in - 2nd attempt here.
I get asked on how much power is gained from certain builds. Here is a pretty good bench mark for what the kits yield. I did try and let the saws feed as close to the same since the dawgs on the 660 are the intermediate size that come with the 1/2 version saws. Both the 461 & 044 have the big kid version clutch cover and bucking spikes which will change the leverage.
The 461 has ~ 1/2 a tank of fuel run through it and was first started, here, in the video after the operation was completed. The 660 has around 5/6 tank burned and the 044 is well broken in but as you can see from the appearance it is still in primo condition.
In the haste at the end, the tach reading for the 044 did not get verified visually. Master Payton seemed to thing it was ~ the 11k number when I asked him later. Also in the haste, had the 044 spooled up a bit more at the upper threshold, rpms wise. From the look of things, it still would have left the 660 behind had it been in the 13.6k range for the wot reading.
Also worth noting, and I mentioned it, the 461 was WAY fat on the high speed setting. It would have Been a little faster had the high speed needle been in the 14/14.5k range.
I am currently available for custom saw modifications. If you are interested, please shoot me an email.
