If put side by side with similar husky or jonsered will they turn up as fast? They are new in my area. Deere c71 vs husky 371/372 etc. I am worried that they are a led sled like echo or the old shindiawa and olimpiques etc.:angry2:

  • 971 13,700rpm
  • 981 13,000rpm

That's cool, but I think the question really was about how fast they rev'ed up (accellerated) compared to Huskys ...

I see....

In my experience, if tuned right, yes, pretty comprable.

I'm sure there are differences but nothing that has really made me go whoa! This thing is slow or fast or whatever.:chainsaw:
 
i would consider letting dave nieger do his magic with the saw. he really made mine a lot stronger and faster.. but my 962 was plenty fast just stock.good luck
 
My understanding is that the 62cc version is the "cream" of the Emak crop, and that the other sizes are more so-so .....
