    Mutt? The tank isn't even jb welded.

    My oh44 has a jb welded hole in the tank AND duct tape holding it together. But it's 10MM (with a 12 mm top end):vulture::cool::vulture::p:vulture::smoke::vulture::faint::thumbs::vulture::drool::vulture::dancer::vulture::cheers::vulture:

    The stock outlet is covered with a small piece of sheet metal (where the screen normally sits), so it all is coming out of the 2 barrels.

    This makes it easy to go back to stick muffler. Just remove the small piece of sheet metal, install screen, and replace the front cover with a stock cover. Within 2 minutes, it's back to stock :)

    Easy Peasy..

    My buddy is making me another one. ;) I can't wait to get it :dex: Probably going on the 460!!

    Dex,
    Please do me a favor ???
    Run it through a cant with it as it sits, then pull the sheetmetal blockoff, install a good screen (or leave it without a screen), and try it with all 3. You might want to consider giving a listen to the tune, and tweak the needles .................. but I want to see if you can feel more power, or see a faster cut with the 3 openings

    What is the extent of tuning between the stock/DP

    Based on how much exhaust opening the 460 has, I would say the 3rd outlet would help it, but it may change the sound a little. As for the tune, I try and always check it before a test.

    I will try and get that done pretty soon. I am off for 5 days for Thanksgiving. I hope the big Cant will be ready by the weekend. I'd like to run the same saws in 20" x 20" wood.

    If I can get a big Aspen log like I had at the GTG, that may be a better test for the Solo vs 460.

    A small twist of the little orange screwdriver. Or not much.

    I wish I had Chad's dyno today. I've got a new recipe for the 440 I'd love to test on it.
