Alot of them came with homelite bars with the S clip spacer.

Old friend gave me this:

Fuel system overhaul and its good to go.

Snagged this:

Off evilbay. Same boogie with the fuel supply. Needed a tank. Split filler neck.
In near mint cosmetic shape.

Also this:

Swapped a Pro Mac 55 for it.
Noodled about half of a 30" pine with it and a Olympyk 264.

So between a red and grey 3700 which one would ppl keep and sell? Assuming everything is the same (cosmetics, mechanicals) Most would say the grey one is a 3800 but model# says 3700. Thoughts?

Keep them both. Nice saws. Check rings and bore. Thin ring 3700 thick could be 3400 3800

As far as I know they are both great, no problems, I don't need 2 and have minimal space for equipment, I orig wanted to sell the grey one but it's in better overall condition. I'm still in the fence on selling either. The grey seems in more demand

bigbearlogging, i will sell you one of mine if this deal falls through, i just need to get them down from the shelf which is not easy at the moment.

This showed up from Wisconsin yesterday. A little ruff around the edges but should clean up well. It blew 155 compression but needs fuel lines and filter and carb gone threw. I plan to get it running good then muff mod and base gasket delete. Should make a good back up to the 590 or just another saw to run.

Finally got to compression test, red:148psi. Grey: 135. It's odd tho, they cut and feel the same

Gray is a 3400, isn't it? Comp of 130 is good for av3400.

 

[Efisher26]
