For sale is a ported echo 490 magnesium case pro-style saw.

Purchased a month or so ago. Original packaging and receipt included. Scrench, oil, owners manual, spare ring included.

Included is a 20" and 16" bar in .325. It pulls both well. Chains still sharp with factory grind. They haven't been hit with a file.

Many pics and videos to follow.

This saw made an honest 4+ hp on the Dyno at the CT GTG

There is nothing wrong with the saw, I simply need to start culling the herd.

My costs are $450 on this saw. It has 5 tanks through it and comp has settled in at 230psi.

Asking $550+shipping FIRM. PayPal friends and family.

Here's the porting thread with build pics and details.

I think you guys can figure out the missing web address.

Awesome looking little saw! have a friend looking for a saw this size. I wanted to make sure i understood you correctly. You have $450 in the saw and are selling for $550? or have $450 in it before port work? not trying to talk you down just want to make sure i tell him the right price.
 
The 024 in the video is pulling PS 3/8lp. The 490 .325. Both 16".

The 490 works great and is a bit faster with picco. This saw takes a Husky small spline 3/8 sprocket and, although it's not perfect, that sprocket will pull a picco bar and chain.

Here's the saw with a 3/8 picco on a 14" off of my echo top handle

 
My cost is $445 before porting.

$380 for saw (on receipt)

$20 incidentals

$45+ bar and chain.


**** something is up with my AS app and not sending me notifications to posts. I never saw your response until just now. Thanks for the info but my friend now has to put a new roof on his barn so he has to hold off. the work in the pictures below look awesome. Good luck selling!
 
Bump for a great saw! I've run it and it will surprise you. Al really woke this saw up!
