Look what we have added to the DYNO; We can now measure heat in the engine while the engine is under a constant and specific (although variable) load. This new feature is allowing us explore how heat is effected by IGNITION TIMING, Muffler Mods, Tuned pipes, SINGLE RING VS TWO RING, Spark Plug ranges, etc... the possibilities are endless. As with anything, I'm sure that there will be growing pains and adjustments to be needed. I believe we need to fine-tune how long the chainsaw should be “loaded” (test period) ; we also need to determine a standard temp for a starting point.

This will/should remove ANOTHER variable from the HP/TQ results on the dyno; I can get a higher HP reading by doing the dyno test while the saw's engine is cooler (as the saw gets warmer and warmer, it makes marginally less and less HP.. we can negate that by warming to a specific temp each time.

I think this is exciting and I am absolute that I have never seen this capability displayed on youtube or internet; I think we (you and I) are the first to have this breakthrough!

This is the continuation of the Stihl 026 Build which we are doing step-by-step.

Current Numbers 3rd Cyl
98 Exhaust
68.5 (137) Intake
120 Xfers (22 BD)
.018 Squish

We are currently testing Muffler Mods and have another round (or two) of muffler mods to test. After that , we will test (order has not been determined yet) Ignition Timing, Single Ring, (possibly/probably) Finger Ports

Stay tuned for further modifications and results.

I don't waste much of anything... especially money. If there is a way to do something cheaper or easier, I'm searching for it.
