    Probably not mine either. I guess the 665 would be the closest in power to it or maybe the 372 to test with. I'll work on one today. I have a full comp loop to try out.

    There's also Branson. Once in a blue moon you can catch a good deal there.

    I just put a 24" on it yesterday. I want to run it a little more before it goes under the knife. I'll see if I can make a 20" cant out of something I've got here.

    I am trying to remember how the pic of Cahoons chain was i saw ,he moved the inside corner over to about 1/3 of the top plate so the cutter would miss the rakes ,it looked like it would cut super fast for kant racing
