Random question here, I'm compiling a list of piston numbers, pin diameters, compression heights, top of pin to top of piston heights and total piston heights... by chance, do you have some piston info that you would be willing to share? I'm asking those who I watch, once the info is gathered in detail I'll post a video with a rundown of potential piston swaps.

One of my Madsens hats is IDENTICAL to the one that you are wearing, right down to the color of EVERYTHING about it. I really like to do business with those guys! 👍 It sounds like “that guy” is a regular “tool” as well. Just keep doing what you’re doing and don’t worry about the haters. It’s too much time wasted on those guys. They will never understand (or care) just how good that you ARE!!!! All that I know is this: if your good subs weren’t still here from the moment that we “saw” you we wouldn’t still be here. You are the real deal ! ! !

A few years ago I got fed up with burning through saw chains when bucking up dirty logs at the landing, so I tried different semi-chisels again but if I used them for felling a tree real quick they are terrible. When I started logging we used a Stihl 056 mag with 404 full chisel for bucking and it worked well, so I set up a 066 with a 24" bar and different 404 chains. My current favorite 404 chain is Carlton B3LM-SK full chisel, full skip. I square file and do what they are now calling the hexa grind on some (does not work as well as square for felling). It takes a strong saw to pull it but I consistently have gotten months out of a loop of this chain vs 2 weeks with 3/8" with alot less sharpening in dirty wood. Carlton is owned by the same company as oregon so most oregon dealers should be able to get it. I get it through my local stihl dealer in 100' roles and loops in any driver count I want. I got a kick out of your intro on this video. I switched the coil on an early 461 build I did, but all my 461s since have the stock limited coil for logging. Ported they have been an ok replacement for my 064s I want to retire. I just prefer the wrap handle and larger clutch/drum on the 064. The R model high out put oiler is a must as well.

Best running 461 I've seen. Nit a fan of them. But shee pulls where it counts!! Saws that turn 14k unloaded but 8k in wood kinda is like taking 2 steps back from stock saw that will hold 9.5! But all drama aside honestly the forum guys can build solid work saws and race saws for sure! You know that! But as your finding out drama is every where a opinion can be expressed. Only in a setting where numbers and facts exist will drama be be extinguished!

The 3 leg/post coils are a limited coil... (unless its off an older 084 and has a trigger... but you won't see those in any modern saw)... all the modern stihls are limited to 13800 or lower as far as I know... the coil i am swapping it with is off a 044 or 440 i can't remember exactly... you can always search the numbers off them on Google...
