Old Randy has completely ruined my theory of keeping a quiet stock saw for domestic jobs dammit...

The question is with the porting of a 241C do we keep it a stratto or gut it ?
Saw builders feel free to input.

Just been emailing Randy and he reckons he'll bore and stroke it to 90cc and convert it to quad overhead cams. He'll also ditch the muffler and run a set of custom 2 into 1 headers. Ceramic coated...

Oh and sorry Andrew for at least partially hijacking your thread

With it being M-tronic I think keeping it strato would be best. It's not so much about building the fastest saw as it is about enhancing the already good qualities that the saw has now. Keeping it low on fumes and high on fuel economy, along with a descent gain in torque will be my goal.

Everything may change after I put some fuel through it and tear it down.

Or when you realise that your smallest carbide burr is actually bigger than the piston.

No that's far more upmarket.

Guys, for what it's worth I may be shipping stuff to USA early next week and have spare capacity as the minimum is 1m3 and I only need about 1/3 of that. Transit is about 19 days. Obviously, too many enthusiasts will die of dehydration if they had to wait that long for Mastermind's 241c thread to actually have anything other than accusations he is messing with them, but I'm thinking maybe someone might be keen to get some gear up to USA so thought I'd ask.

 

[Stihlman441]

Interesting idear.
I have to get it to you,then you ship to US,then have to get to Randy from there,i bit to hard im thinking thanks anyway.
I sent a 441 over there afew weeks ago and it was $198.

Heck, no point sending it here then as it's probably about the same to go straight to USA, but I do have mules...er...relatives in Sydney travelling to NZ often on business so I usually just load 'em up with stuff. Maybe that's a cheaper way to get it across the ditch?

Ones coming over real soon in fact. Was going to get him to bring a softboard over for a friend's son who's just starting to learn to surf but found one here instead.

 

[Mastermind]

No hurry on my end guys........

If you want to figure a way to send em over together then by all means do just that.
