I couldn't be more pleased with how this saw turned out! The saw ran great before the machine work, but this really brought it to life. Part of that is because my transfer and exhaust port timing was too high and the intake not yet low enough. I ported it knowing the jug would be coming down. It's now one of my saws that has a wow factor to it. I fully believe it'll put a woopin' on a ported MS660. This is the same log I just test a MS660 in last weekend.

My 066BB would run with it...I think, lol.
Not sure I'm up to spending $70 or so to ship it up and back. Then you don't know how it'll be tuned, etc. Just not sure it's worth it. If I did this for a living and needed the advertisement, then maybe. But I hardly port any saw now adays. I just don't have the time anymore.

It seems to be hanging tough in the cut Brad. What did your compression end up at?
It'll hold 13,000 self feeding, and about 12,000 pushing on it. Compression was 192 before this vid. The saw is still new with very little time on it, so not broken in yet either.

Damn......That is good. Have you got the rakers at .005 again?
JK :msp_sneaky:
It sounds really good to me. It's hard the argue with Husqvarna's quad transfer port design. I would think a 660 would have a tough time keeping up.

Actually, I set the rakers to the "soft" setting using my Oregon guage, making the rakers lower for softwoods!
I believe the wood is Oak, and frozen at that!
Hi Nik! Hi Andre! I see you guys down there, lol Nice work there Nik!
Nice work there Nik!
Now don't beat yourself up too much about it, but I think my 211 will take it.:jester:
Maybe if I set the chain brake and push/pull the 390:jester:
