There are REALLY A LOT OF KILLER SAWS OUT THERE, GRIZ, you might want to consider experiencing some American muscle saws, Mac 125 comes to mind, you don't have to run out and buy one, just run one, and hang on, they are quite the ride! Sort of like a Shelby 427 side oiler AC Cobra!
A Homelite 1050 is another big piece of Magnesium that is a hoot to run! The Poulan BP-655 is a Giant machine as well! Or the Stihl 090/070. Hard to beat those big beasts!!
The pioneer/partner/Poulan pro 98cc saws are awesome. Not much heavier than a 394 if any and a little more torque stock. Not to mention an awesome sound.
nice two saw plan griz. coupla nice saws right there! i have a 261(non c-m) torn down right now...just gotta get a couple of parts for it then shell go back together. i have a feeling my 260 will be sold soon after i get it running.
