    Tried my hand at a hybrid. 195 psi @ .020 squish after doing squish work and setting base. Bridge ports added and in the video was tuned to 13800 as I checked when I got home. Chain was worn out and dull but all I had to run on this bar. Ill find better wood once I get a good chain on it and do another video. It feels pretty strong though considering how hard I was leaning on it to make up for the chain 20150211_122502.jpg 20150211_121222.jpg 20150202_143146.jpg 20150211_102531.jpg 20150211_094005.jpg 20150211_093953.jpg 20150211_093947.jpg

    Very nice. Getting ready to build one of them myself! Here's my victim. Super nice 440R. Thanks to cgraham I got a 046 D cylinder for it.

    Cool!! I like the racier feel of the hybrid compared to my ported 461. Should be a good comparison between the 2

    I had thoughts of using it on my 440, but I had a Masterminded 440 jug sitting on the bench...

    Cause it's too hot down there to cut them any bigger... That's called blocking wood in Louisiana... :D
