    Maybe I need to change my Christmas list request to a finger ported 440 instead of a pair of wool socks. But that might confuse Santa Claus.

    My BIL has one of my old 372's. We'll be going to see him tonight. I've been able to borrow it before. Maybe for these testing purposes, I can borrow it again. :D

    I like rain....if it rains hard enough I'll probably get a 390xp.
    I still think a ported 390xp would be KING in that comparison.

    Randy must be workin right now. Anyone else have a say in a ported 390 vs a ported 461 and 660? Also ive been wondering which saw around the 90cc range would have the most torque in 25 to 35" wood with the least bog??

    When we had the MS660 build off, Durand took a 372 he ported and knocked off a faster cut than any saw in the build off.
