Simonized saws.

[Simonizer]

The head of cardiology has gained a reputation by word of mouth (great form of advertising) for his expertise, not his arrogance.

All people have asked for is an example of his work. To take offense to this request and suggest that people are causing trouble is a strange thing.

Never once were we taught in small business management that being cocky and arrogant was all that was needed to sell products or services but to be avoided. Confident, yes.

OK Simon is going to produce a saw for some to test. Great stuff. The way to promote a business!

Thanks.

I think Terry would be a good one to run it in a professional environment. Terry has purchased modded saws from many of the same builders I have and we've talked modded saws before- he knows a lot about 'em.

I believe Terry has a date for his summer GTG as June 18 (I'm pretty sure thats it) would be nice if a bunch of fella's could run it. (Hint, Hint)

I do alright for a hack job. :msp_unsure:

Lol, I can do a hack and slash job with the best of them. I even got accused of using a pocket knife and a hoof rasp. Lol
We should have a 372 throw down with the only tools being a flat file, some emery cloth and rat tail file and of course a few tools to take the saw apart. Lol
I can't see anyone being disappointed if they sent Simon a saw.
How's that for feathering the nest?

i can guarentee an unbiased opinion of the saw,that will be reported back to indian springs. he can post my opinion after he gets it if he wishes. i dont have a bone to pick with simon or his work . i just wanted him to show folks what he had to offer. he offered to do a free saw for me but id have to buy one to have a stock saw to send him.lol but he struck a good deal with indian springs and is going to put up his work for us to know whats up. i say good on him.so when i get the saw to work with i will be sending one of my saws to compare apples to apples for indian springs. its hard to give a good opinion of a saws performance unless you have something to compare it to. i dont care whos saw is faster im not looking for a race. im just curious as to how well it performs at a day to day basis.

I'm down with a 372XP buildoff, 71cc style. The problem would be finding the saws.

I don't like the ring end placement on the XPWs. They significantly limit port widths.

the ring end location can be changed,its all up to just how much money and time a person wants tied up in the saw. if its for personal use throw cuation to the wind and get all you can out of it.

That is my favourite saw to mod. I feel like that saw is my own child lol. Expensive to do with all the different parts. Absolute rocket though. 34" bar in cedar no problem. I have been spending time on the Dolmar 7900 lately, it is an ugly looking saw with air filtration issues but it really does respond well to modding. The muffler is a real pain to work on. Cheers.

Or just ditch the bottom ring

 

[RiverRat2]

I've got a low hour 365 special and a (get this) OEM/NIB/NOS single ring 372 P/C it may actually be a 371 have had it for years,,,

I send the original piston back with the saw. Cheers.

 

[tlandrum]

simon do you use a single ring piston in your 372?

I have a 371 that I just put new bearings and seals in that I could pitch in for a build-off. I only have 50mm cylinders for it though, one is like-new. I may be able to purchase a 51.4mm top end for it but there's more piston options with the 50mm bore (or 52mm bore.)

I've used the 266 and 038 Super pistons in the 50mm bore and 272, 064, and 380CD pistons in the 52mm bore. I'm building another 52mm bore 372 with an 064 piston for my brother currently.

 

[tlandrum]

well,,,,,,,,,,,,,, i just so happend to have bought a 371xp on friday for $50 that had been dropped off at the dealer for dead with a bent handle bar and a missing on/off switch. i took it home dumped the old fuel ,cleaned the carb,added fresh fuel,straitened the handle as best i could and pulled the completly stopped up screen out of the muffler and wee. it runs like a champ and i used it to cut up with on the landing today. so i guess i have my build off saw.

 

[Simonizer]

simon do you use a single ring piston in your 372?

Yes, but I have never seen the one I use on this site,...ever.
