That is an old slow revving saw, you may gain a little by polishing the exhaust and matching the ports. You want faster look for a good 272/372, lots around for reasonable prices.

77 Piston & cylinder are direct bolton on a 65. You'll need a 77 cyl. cover or cut a hole in the top of the 65 for spark plug.

thank you fur the input, if i put the 77 head and piston on my 65, i can use the carb off the 77 right? did they make more than one carb fur the 77, if so, was there a bigger carb that fit the 77 that i could use with the 77 head and piston. How do i port and polish, what tool do i need?
Thank You...

Yes you can use 77 carb and associated intake parts on 65. I'll have to check on carbs don't remember off the top of my head. You can use a Dremel with carbide bits to port. There are a lot of methods to polish . There is a thread in Tool Shed or How to Basic Fixes. Do a search on porting.

Bigger carb for 65/77 http://www.ebay.com/itm/HUSQVARNA-CHAINSAW-480-CARBURETOR-BOX2468X-/351192546088?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item51c4b4fb28 IMHO don't think you need larger carb. Here is a link for Tilltson HS carbs gives venturi size, etc. http://www.tillotson.ie/docs/HSPartsList.pdf
