Who's building a mean 346xp today?

[OnTheRoad]

I have a mint 346xp I'd like to have ported and would like to see if anybody stands out with these saws today. My other saws were done by MM but I see he no longer works on used saws. This one is a firewood toy. It would have to use an unmodified factory piston regardless of who does it.

Don't want to take a chance on somebody who may keep my saw, do shoddy work, or swap it out with a used up junker as some builders are known to do. I'm kind of thinking of Miller as he's semi-local.

@huskihl does a great job and is a straight shooter.

Kevin (huskihl) did a saw for me this past spring. I wouldn't hesitate to so business with him again.

The one in that video sure is a runner! Glad to have the endorsements of huskstihl. Any recommendations on replacing the carb with a HDA 199 or other currently available units at the time it's ported?

Do it

 

[huskihl]

That saw has the 199 in it

It's been in a box for years but I can dig it out and look. Is the carb model on there somewhere?

I've had 346/2153s ported by 6 or 7 guys..the best 2 had the stock carb.

I think the 199 is a waste of money.

One thing I've learned, there are many different recipes that work for these saws. I've also learned there is as strong of a love/hate for the 199 as there is brand loyalty for some.
