Come Bradly!!
All good here with the muffler and (bar and chains).
Had A LOT of work with her besides just a couple holes.
And last night was are anniversary so the bride made me get cleaned up for the evening!!!
Brad I am sending NOS bar and new chains.
Hate to see the saw tested with them.
Sure you got some hangin around for that.
If I get off on time I will check back this evening.
Every one seems to want there power on!! LOL
As with the videos, if you look closely, it wasn't just a few holes.
That baby was cooked! It has had just as much work done after "part 6" as with all 6 parts combined.
In other words, you'll think twice before you volunteer to repair another old muffler like this
I will not use the new bar. I've got more than one here that I can use. I can't wait to run this monster!

OK....my buddy called the distributor with no luck.
HOWEVER....the guy whom he spoke with knows a guy, who knows a cousin...blah blah..etc..that is a collector and might possibly have one for us. Lets all cross our fingers. This bracket is turning out to be harder to find than kryptonite.

Sounds like it's time to make one.

Let it be known!
FREAKIN MUFFLER IS DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Spent the last 3 sessions chasing holes, then cutting the area out and adding a piece of metal, and again and again and again!!!! you get the picture! Brazing was weld, if the area got to big then I cut that small area out and added steel. Then the final sand blasting showed some areas I wasn't happy with and I just dealt with them!
And ya Brad, doubt I will step up for this duty any time soon! Unless I trip!!! LOL!!
Going to hit it with some black H-temp paint and cook the ####ens out of it over night!
Pics and ships out tomorrow!!!
Will post in and the ETA of bar, chains, rim drum departure.

As for the gap, it is TIGHT!!!!
Well within tolerances!
And the muffler continues to kick my butt!
Touched up 2 more welds, putting my lil'dragon to bed, hang with the bride a touch and spend the night in the garage on a midnight prep and paint mission.
Vid coming!!
And a couple pics!

I'll go ahead and have the shop call Intermountain Stihl in the morning.
Thanks Jacob!

Hopefully Intermountain STIHL has better connections that Northeast STIHL.
Let me know when and if one is found. As I mentioned before to Brad, I will pay the cost or donate the cost of the bracket to the charity.

Now that the link is no longer in Brads signature I don't know who to send the money to.

Thanks. I wasn't sure how much had changed. I will make sure to add the note.
