    Alan was great to work with. I had the saw drop shipped from a dealer in Ohio to Alan. He built it based on what I told him my use was. When it was ready hid wife has family about 30 miles from me so she dropped the saw off at their business saving my shipping.

    I have only run it a few minutes Sunday. It will be after Christmas before I can put some real run time on it, but I'm pretty sure it will be all I have hoped. Just the initial pop on the first start made me go "Wow".

    Yea hes well known for his exhaust outlets. My 2171 will almost make your ears bleed. And my race muffler for my 562 you can watch the piston while running. Pretty fun to run! Mine took about 4-5 tanks to settle in and got really strong after the 10th er so tanks.

    Alan builds a righteous saw. No matter the color.

    I have a 359 that Alan built for me. I like to take it to cutting parties and watch my friends expressions when they try it.

    That has to be one of the most fun things to do. I've had the occasion twice to let guys with zero experience with modded saws run mine. The looks you get are awesome!
