Echo 600p vs 620p

[jtc16]

The website says 600p is more expensive and heavier.. anyone know there difference in these 2?

I think the coil and carb are different. Not sure about porting.

- ignition is different ( 600p has 3 advance stages and the 620p has 4 advance stages at different ranges of each other)
- carb is different ( Walbro HDA 268 for the 600 and Walbro HDA 316 for the 620)
- cylinder timing and porting is different
- compression ratio is a little less on the 600 than on the 620,...

stock WOT on a 600p is 13.000rpm
stock WOT on a 620p is 13.400rpm

The 600 doesn't show in the 2017 catalog. Maybe it is discontinued. The 620 is suppose to have more power. I have a 620 and can vouch for its power.

My vote is 620

Thanks for the info, can you run a full comp 27" on the 620 you think?

catalog says 27 inch bar is an option.
