Stumphusky put a degree wheel on a 576 in this thread - http://www.arboristsite.com/stickies/177311.htm

With only 11 degrees of blowdown, the muffler mod needs to fairly generous to drop that pressure as quickly as possible.

11°? Wow! BTW, all the pics are broken in that thread. Hard to make out much without them.

Andre, I've got to address this comment. Not a 7900 by a long shot? I beg to differ with you. It's right on the heals of the 7900. It's a tried and true, proven runner. What's not to like? And don't give me this AV and filtration rhetoric. I ain't buyin' it. The vibes on Stihl saws have never been an issue to many, and the same with the filtration.otstir:

Having a bad day there Brad?? Not happy about the 576 running with the 441? Everything you said about the 460 can be said about the 7900 + it has better AV, power, price and so on. Really? you know better, you've done testing with me. The 460 is a fine saw, but it has nothing on a 7900 period. I know it's one or your favorite saw, so I understand how how you feel, but don't keep whining about it like the other guys, the facts are the facts.... no matter how much you like a saw.

Whiner schminer, you're so original, lol. It's about time you showed up! Not a bad day at all, just a big grin on my face Seems like you're back peddling a good bit here. You started out in your initial post saying "it's not a 7900 by a long shot". Now it simply "doesn't have anything on a 7900" Besides, you can't call the 046 an AMC Pacer either:hmm3grin2orange:

I've only seen pics of the Dolmar full wrap and the look functional, but odd, so I guess it fits the saw just right.
