460 064 066 ms660
Well this thred may be aging like myself but its fascinating topic and good to stumble on during a related search.Used an 046 which for the physical size was a proper little trooper , keeping its head up cutting next to a Husqy 395 in bluegum. Then came an MS660 which I noted after an hour a bloody grunty cutter and no award for seeing why its the current choice of so many professional forestry personell worldwide today.So I bought myself an 066,it was cheap , old , and could be repaired with a mix of old and new parts MS660.I've seen written quotes of minute changes in some components ,one of which is the ports and so slight you need a micrometer to read the shift.Apparently amounts to half a horse? BUT now I have bought an 064 which has almost 66 power and almost only the weight of th 460.certainly a bit smaller than the 66.As I tried one & was so impressed ,one had to join my collection.Thers a bunch of technical plus to the last purchase that I'm itchin to have a belt at. Tryin 660BB pis.cyl.??Any warnings in that?
