Other problem is to ship it there and back and porting work cost,its getting a bit dear.What would be the go is get someone to get one from UK and send it to the builder.

I likey like this pic,left 460,right 660 and the two bad boys in the middle.:msp_smile:
If you guys are serious about this, I can have a look at what it would cost to ship. But I see the 241C-M is cheaper in the UK than it is over here, so if you got someone who can send it from the UK, he'll probably be cheaper than me.
Btw, don't know if I've posted in this topic before but have been following it for a while. Awesome thread with awesome pics! Thanks for sharing!

For those of you that did not know one of my 441Cs (Sawzilla) had a mishap there awhile ago,it just stopped and would not re start.After investigation i found compression was down so i took the muff off and you can see why.The piston ring snagged the exhaust port and broke and made a mes of the P & C.Its on the way back from being re build by Mitch,when it arrives and i get some fuel through it there will be a vid with 441C SawzillaMitcherized V 461R ported v 441C Snellerized.
I am uploading a vid of the ported 461Rs first run.

Mitch and others saw builders.
If you have a good look at that pic of ring disaster,the top ring has a bevel, wear mark all the way along it whats the go with this ?.
Was this saw doomed from long ago ?.:msp_sad:

Yes, in so many words. The ring was getting tucked rather aggressive, it was only a matter of time really. A miscalculation.

First run of the ported 461R today,this saw will replace my stock 460 (Ozzy model dual port muff) so if any of you Ozzy blokes are interested its for sale and is in very good condition..This saw and all my other saws are work saws so keep that in mind for latter on when they are put up against each other,the quickest is not the winner or which builder ported theres more aggressively but it is good fun anyway.
For me nothing will beat a ported 441R CMTronic for a full on work for money firewood saw.
So your probably thinking why does he wont a 461 then,well i will tell ya.
I wont this saw set up for basically for the crap jobs,dry hard Ozzy hardwoods,with a 20'' or 28'' bar and semi chisel chains this type of work ya need a saw with TORQUE bing go a ported 461.:smile2:
So when i come to a standing or dead Sugergum in the plantations i don't have to use my nice sharp full chisel chains and stuff um with the first cut.:msp_mad:
In this vid its on its first cuts,first tank of fuel and the chain is a bit ordinary,did this on purpose to see if it could lug through.I have heard all the hype about these things having torque, well they were not wrong and Mitch has done a smicko job in retaining this,good work champ.
20" bar semi chisel chain 8 pin sprocket in dry Pine.A wisker fat tune at 13800 to 13900 rpm ish.
Sorry about the vid its on my iphone still working it out.

You own an MS880 Andrew. Stop being a girl.
Nice vid by the way - that wood looks solid old son for sure. Even with a blunt chain that looked slow and I know it's not the saw

I have to agree if you can find a saw builder with porting tools small enough
I'll port a MS241 for free if it shows up. :msp_mellow:
Everyone is impressed with the 461 but Brad...... :hmm3grin2orange:

PM me your address. Seriously. I'll throw in a couple of P&C kits for your troubles. Lucky I'm running solo tonight and still awake with a screaming kid that has only just gone to sleep (12:30am here). The other Aussies are probably asleep so lucky me
