Where the heck is Dennis?

[HUSKYMAN]

Dennis I have some Q's about my 920 and once I buy it you disappear on me.

Give me some love man!

 

[jokers]

Yeah, I was wondering too. Of course I do the manly thing and don`t bother to call him to se if everything is OK. Maybe tomorrow.

Hey guys..I am still here...just really busy with alot of things going on...trying to get the last of my built saws out the door...I still have alot of other things going on here as well..personal and business wise...
Huskyman, fly away with the questions re the 920..I still love mine!! Super 930 head and piston, 36" chrome bar...
Russ, by all means give me a holler...been awhile since we chatted..although I am gone out for the morning today..should be home about noonish..

Hey Dennis, thanks for replying.

First, my bar for my 670 does not fit this saw, the bar studs are too big. So what other saws share bar mounts with these bad boys so I can get a bar bigger than the 20" one thats on it now.

Second
What is the difference between the 920, 930, and 930 Super? Mike Acres site doesnt have much on these saws. I know mine is 87cc, but how about the others?

Third
How about some picks of your saws so I can see how the muffler looks, and any tips for a little more performance

Thanks in advance

Hey HM...sorry...I was out of the loop again for the weekend..been home most of the time trying to feel better....

Your 920 needs a bar stud kit...I don't have the part number handy, but it will allow you to use regular (Oregon D009) Jonsered bars on your 920...

the 920 and 930 differ in displacement....the Supers had full dropped out transfer ports, and a more open exhaust.

The muffler on my Super 930 is the epitomy(sp?) of ugliness(unless my pipe is on it)...my dad just drilled some holes in the front of the muffler when I was a kid...and it worked...so I just left it looking that way....she is a sleeper..lol...

Dennis, I am of the opinion that the 910, 920, and 930 are all 87cc displacement. The 810 and 820 were about 80cc. There were definite differences in piston rings and transfers, and timing etc. but displacement was constant. Those saw are torquers for sure and the Husky 181/281 and 288 were also. They share displacement but design was different on these families. BTW the 181/281 makes a good race saw for the 5 cubic inch displacement class because it is almost exactly 5 CI and it responds well to hop up. Mike

Mike, yep you are absolutely correct...I meant to type 830 and 930, but had the 920 on my mind. Thanks for correcting that.

I have seen several different pistons as well...some thin ring, some thick, but to be honest, I have them in a box so I am not sure what models they came in....I inherited all the parts and built my saws from there...

Yeah the 181/281 is a good saw...but its orange...lol...

 

[HUSKYMAN]

Thanks for the info guys. So if I just change the studs the oiler and everything will still line up right?

Whats the best way to remove a stud? ( From a saw that is)

The 920 and 930 saws have screw-in studs, meaning that you'll need a stud puller or a pair of vise grips with polyurethane jaw covers, or a real light touch with regular vise grips. Speaking of different pistons I recently got a thin-ring piston for my 930. Yowser~!
