Looking foward to the outcome on this saw . Ilike stihl saws but husky has went to a whole new level with more models in auto-tune coming out . ( 550xp ) is what im waiting for. Thanks mastermind for a great thread .
Welp......I don't drink.
The final port numbers ended up.....
Exhaust Duration: 161°
Blowdown: 17°
Strato Duration: 148°
Intake Duration: 153°
I'll probably end up going back in a time or two before I'm finished. I think that by adding a couple more degrees of intake timing the fuel mixture will overpower the strato event even more and that should add a bit of snot. I just hope the auto tune can make this stuff work out alright.
I cut the muffler in half in order to gut it and open it properly. It's welded back up and repainted. The owner wants a dual port with exhaust tubes. I also ordered a new muffler to go with the saw when it goes back home in case he wants a stock look for any reason.
I should have it wrapped up and running tomorrow.
Did you run the saw at all, before taking it apart? :msp_confused

Great...... Just great!
Not only did I buy my 562 and Fiskars ax because of this site now I think I need a Tech Light, MM and port work done to my saw... Thanks guys! :msp_thumbup:
And I'm just gettin started reading in this site!
Subscribed as well.
The 555 is real loud with a gutted muffler too.
From what i have ran the 555, if i bought a 562xp, I would leave her stock. Its plenty of power IMHO. But to each his own.
:msp_rolleyes::chatter::check:
I've had this saw sitting in the shop for a few days, finally got some time to dive in.
It resembles a running shoe from this angle to me.
Damn well made saw. After going through it I have the utmost respect for the designers.
I like the captive bar nuts too.
Three shoe clutch...
No mesh filter here.
