    Ok boys I'm getting a little a head of myself but this 7910 thread has me pumped. I still have a long way to go on it but I would like an idea of which saw you guys would have the most interest in. It will be built on the same aspect as the 7910 thread. 2 saws take a stab at the first set of numbers than based on results try my best to out build it. Thank you for your opinions.

    I would like to see that comparison. Have to do it twice though. Once right after porting and again after a dozen tanks are through the saws because these 6100's just keep gaining power as the break in and loosen up.

    They dont hold up to well to 16" cherry trees! One of the 5105H's I sold already came back smashed with only a couple tanks through it. Looked pretty bad but luckily just needed a new recoil and A/V spring. Plus a little love on the wrap handle. 15 minutes and it was back out cutting wood.

    I rolled one end of a log over my 5100, knocked it off the tractor fender multiple times.. They really do bounce nicely..

    Looks like the 5105 is winning here and the 6100 is winning on AS. Lol.

    These are kicking my butt tonight. All I got left is the timing and I can find the thread size off these bolts to pull the flywheel. There a metric machine screw or something jacked up!

    I have a Remongton SL-9 that I needed pull the wheel to get at the points. Wasn't 1/4-20" or M6-1.0. Was actually 12-24, the folks at the fastener warehouse were like "whaaaat?". :rofl: :lol:
