    I love bigger saws, but my back doesn't anymore. I've run a few ported 261s, they are a beast for 50cc.

    The one Preston has that Brad did is a damm good runner. He hit the right buttons on that one for sure.

    Yeah that one does run good. Its well broken in too which I've found makes a noticeable difference IMO.

    Randy, do you advance the timing on these too?

    Right.
    Does that alone make much difference?

    A muffler mod, with an extra outlet, and the factory opening hogged out, and the timing advanced helps a good bit. Probably 18-20%

    As much as I would love to run it... I don't really need any other saw than the 036. :thumbs: The others are a direct result of CAD! !
    I'm gonna stick with the 036, 441, and 460 (all gonna be done by Randy ;)) for awhile. I really want a new truck.

    I was gonna buy one 2 years ago, but the wife gave me an ultimatum. Truck or Mower. Couldn't be both. I chose mower. Now mower is about paid off. Time for a truck. :)

    (For those that may not know? It's not your average mower ;)
