    Fresh sharp chain and a ported saw is an absolute joy to experience.

    What's optimal, 0.020? Are you doing a base gasket delete?

    .020 is minimum. I broke out the Motoseal and bolted down the cylinder w/ no gasket.

    The throttle response on this thing is unreal. It spools up.. now. Can’t wait to get some more quality time on it.

    It's been a while since I've thrown some chips. I had a some time this afternoon before getting little man from school so I got the 365 Xtra special out and bucked up some oak logs. She needed some tuning anyways, was running a little fat on the high end. :saw:

    Eric Wanderweg I've got one of those wild thangs laying around here somewhere. I should dig it out and let er rip.

    Waiting on a carb rebuild kit but so far seems to be a ripper with an 8 tooth sprocket and 20” bar.

    It’s an OE 372XP. I had my coworker powder coat the clutch cover and cases, and I Rit dyed the plastics.
