WE love you IRONHORSE:) God Bless and Protect you and your loving family:) Bless you for sharing your life and wisdom with your united in love community:)
Sounds like an interesting build. The 066 sounds like a good saw for a reed intake conversion to get around the spit back problem. Can't wait to see it run. Cheers Harvey.
Nice build Harvey, that big girl is a runner 👍. Ironhorse logging saws are strong and reliable just like the builder. Thanks for putting up content dispite your busy life. All of us fans are tickled pink to see your face healthy and happy.. HI BARB 👋.. Much love to the family. Cheers!!
That makes a lot of sense, I wish that I would have sent you my saw to port I would have gotten what I wanted and then some felling trees is my passion. Keep up the great work Adam Wheeler from Wilson Wisconsin
I love your explanations mixed with stories I could watch for hours. You rock Harvey. Brisket now we’re talkin. Have a great holiday my friend .!!!🦾☀️🧬❤️🔥
Hope you all have a great 4th weekend. That saw sounds and looks great. Another of your great fact filled vids. The best to you , Barb, and Collin. Be safe and be careful
Ohh Man, 90 Ex and that static Compression , amazing. Intake 178 😮 holy Shit, i cant wait to see it cuttin. Never seen those Numbers on a 100cc Saw. Thanks for your Knowledge. Kind Regards from Germany
Great work as always. I run the headsaw in a veneer plant and do aurbor work and logging on the side.(you gotta work 3 jobs just to make it anymore) Anyway, I'm 130 soaking wet and those big saws kick my butt, been running a 266 but it's about on its last leg. Love the saw though, would you ever consider revamping it for a little logger from PA? Thanks for considering it and love everything you guys do.
Happy 4th boy's..I like big power with easy starting..lower compression actually makes a better logging saw..they run way cooler..I ve killed couple 661s that were turned up to hot..might go broke trying to make a living logging around here with this shit economy...I m taking a beating..👍👍
I have a few farmtech 660s and have one tore apart to build and seeing this saw I would love to try to build it as close to this saw as possible. (can't afford stihl right now)
So I know it's a little premature but do u think u could cut the transfer bridge outa a 372 or do u need a big saw to do that sutch as a 066 or a 394 395 I learn so mutch from u its silly thanks for the knowledge and the video's
Interesting build Ironhorse love to see how that ms660 runs with the transfer work and Wiseco piston. But if it don't workout my opinion I would put a Hyway 54mm kit with a popup piston try to do alittle flow work to the cases and keep the exhaust timing at 102 - 97 degs Hyway out of the box has good intake numbers and texture the intake run a hd2 air filter . The bigbore 56 mm kits don't seem to run very well. The port volumns are too big.
Are you referring to the nikasil cylinders, Titanikel cylinders, or both? I'm waiting for a couple 56's to get to me, but I'm told the Titanikel timing numbers and overall porting is completely different from the nikasil cylinders. I'm interested in your opinion. Thanks.
@@mikeschwagmeyer1347 Mainly the nikasil but interesting the titanikel 56 mm has different timing let me know how it turns out. But I believe one problem with the ms 660 saws they may not have the case volume to support a 56mm but a ms 661 has a 56 mm bore stock and has smaller stroke 37 mm ms 660 has a 40 mm stroke. Also the 661 is stronger than a 660 stock.
@@kennytheguitarfanatic054 Thanks for the response. I'll let you know how the Titanikel turns out when I get all my parts. If it times close to stock, I won't grind the ports. My interest is to determine if a cylinder bolt on can best OEM and by how much. You have a point about the case volume. I'll see. I've seen some strong non stock 660's. I agree 100% about 660 v 661. I think the 660 is weak out of the box. Seems some of the older 066's were much stronger. I don't have any of the older sought after 066 cylinders for comparison, but my guess is Stihl made some changes to the 660 cylinder. We both know Stihl is capable of building a strong saw. Maybe the EPA was a factor. I'll touch base when finished. Thanks.
anyone have concerns with Hyway big bore kit ring end gap too tight? I've talked to a couple guys that have messed up some brand new equipment because they hung a ring.... come to find out, we're noticing extremely tight ring end gaps on the hyway kits. Just check yours before you install. 👍
That saw is similar to mine. I have a Farmmac F660V that I upgraded to a Hyway Big Bore Pop up piston kit. Barely ran it just because my job keeps me busy. 168-170 PSI compression. Deleted base gasket. Was wondering if you think a timing advance would help it at all? I followed your basic porting on the piston (just removed casting flash and broke all the sharp edges) and did a cleanup on the cylinder trying to avoid the plating. It runs amazing and I think I used the same muffler that's on that saw as well. Thing sounds basically like mine does.
She wants to be in the cut, SO BAD! :) She's fat and happy on the low, and sounds SO GOOD at WOT! Boy, she' gonna come right in once she starts cutting, I can hear it right away, and I cam feel it in my bones!
Secondary compression (in the combustion chamber) does no good if there is NO good Primay Compression in the bottom end giving a good SOLID fuel air HIT coming up when those uppers crack. This is where there are trade-offs AND certain idiocicracies with certain saws. Exhaust tuning can also either wake a saw up, OR make it seem like a hopeless turd. BTW - Left-overs are AWESOME! Cook once, eat twice!
I've got a 041av super electronic have issue with it when tank is full of gas rpm is slow when 1/2 full it screams. Any thoughts. Also own a 1995 066 it's a bear it will cut even when the chain break is on.
Hey harvy I'd love a shout out ben watching ur channel since the beginning and I've never had a youtube shout from anyone I'm a subscriber to bucking billy and tinman
Wow, You what to the bridge. This is so cool for me to see and hear. I got what I got. But I love to see in virtual scene air moving. Poor kid in the store standing in line with a big mt of a man who just aet a bucket of pees & prunes. I bet he wish the mask mandate was still in effect. Happy fourth you guys love the Idea of a hole brisket.
Can't wait to see him dropping giants with that saw! Much respect to both of you kind gentlemen.
WE love you IRONHORSE:)
God Bless and Protect you and your loving family:)

I always learn something listening to you. Thank you sir. Have a happy 4th and eat a bite or two of brisket for me.
Runs smooth for two stroke. U have it well ironed out
Happy 4th of july iron horse.
Still praying for you Harvey. Praying that you have a speedy and complete recovery
Thank you I like watching your channel I got a old stil 440 I love
Been looking for an old 660
I grew up watching my Dad run his 066 red eye with the clear tank. Beast purely never had a problem with it EVER! To this day.
That saw's Crazy!! happy 4th Ironhorse!
Awesome work sir
its going be intresting to see how that stihl cuts,sounds very good.
Awesome video, lots of new information to the channel! Happy 4th

👍great content
Thanks
Interesting bit about grinding the bridge out. I have a botched Dolmar 120si cylinder I may try that on if yours works out Harvey.
nice
OEM ms660 cylinder can be very good timed or it can be bad timed cylinder. Ms660 benefits and gains alot from just muffler mod.
God bless
I have a few farmtech 660s and have one tore apart to build and seeing this saw I would love to try to build it as close to this saw as possible. (can't afford stihl right now)
A lot of compression. Need the decomp😂😂. Most make fun of us when we use it😂😂. As for pull start. Yes the stihl EZ is especially good for this saw💪💪💪

Hello Harvey. Did you get this 98,5cc ms660 finished with that dished piston you mentioned that you gonna do?
what do you think about the 880? can I get more out of it
I've got a 041av super electronic have issue with it when tank is full of gas rpm is slow when 1/2 full it screams. Any thoughts. Also own a 1995 066 it's a bear it will cut even when the chain break is on.
Iron horse how did that saw run that you removed the bridge on ?
What carb are you running on this?
Do you sell a dual port muffler for a 046?
What does it cost for you to build one of these saws?
Happy Fourth of July
Modified muffler??
Hi where do get your vallorbe double chisel bit files
I’m in BC Canada can’t find them for sale anywhere
Thank you
Ebay
@@theironhorse6600 thank you but I couldn’t find them on there either
Let me check with a couple suppliers! I’ll mention it on an upcoming video!
Ebay has them! Buy the pherd! Look up double bevel chisel file
@@theironhorse6600 I have the pherd ones
And the bahco ones
But don’t last very long I understand the vallorbe are much better
Thank you

Apakah MS 660 bisa bertanding dengan 070?
In most cases 066 mag will kill a 070
@@theironhorse6600sangat menarik untuk mencoba. 660 sangat bertenaga tapi lebih ringan dari 070.
