GTG at my house tomorrow night. Bring your 346s and your best chain! I'll get a .325 chain, or two, out and take it to any of your 3/8 chains:) JK:clap: Wish we could though!

Yeah I would enjoy that myself Brad. :)

That little saw sure got under my skin. I've already made a deal on one. The 026 is no longer my favorite 50cc saw, the 346 beats it hands down.

Unfortunately, that's the only one I found on cowroy's channel. It's not a fair fight for Wendell's saw anyway, with a semi-chisel chain. It did very well considering that. Next time, we'll have the tools to make the needed B&C changes, and we'll settle this:)

I was gonna put a better full chisel chain on it when I got to Terry's but ended up forgetting all about it when I heard all those saws running. :D

We can talk trash all we want here on the Web. We've got to get back together and do this right:rock:

1. Stock saw running:
a. 3/8 7-pin
b. .325 8-pin
c. .325 7-pin

2. Any ported saw running:
a. 3/8 7-pin
b. .325 8-pin
c. .325 7-pin

3. Your own saw with your choice of chain and sprocket.

It'll be back home tomorrow but I probably won't have a chance to get it in wood until I get to Mitch's on Friday.

I need to pick up a 8 pin .325, a 7 pin 3/8 and a 3/8ths chain tomorrow to get ready for the test runs this weekend.

UPS will be delivering the Sugihara bar on Friday so as soon as it shows up, I'll be heading west.

IIRC, Murray is about 4 1/2-5 hours from here. I'd be tempted to bring the family down in the car:clap: Maybe the. OKI Diaper Posse would be up for a trip and we could car pool. Last weekend cost me right at $200! Most of that was in gas.

Semi Chisel isn't that bad. I can cut good too. I've been running it quite a bit the last two years, only cause I came across a bunch of it.

You guys make me feel ashamed for admitting this, but the Jetta got :msp_w00t:51mpg:msp_w00t: on the way back. On another note, my dodge gets 20-21 on the interstate. It's worth it to have a diesel. Just thinking Brad, but next time you could leave your saws with Terry and then you wouldn't have to haul them around all that much:msp_tongue:

Hmm, you figure 450-500hp?? That's a fair amount. My diesel doesn't even break a sweat at 700ft lbs. and get around 20mpg towing 5000lbs, well, depends on how I drive.

Same here. My chipped 02 dMax (500hp, 700ft-lbs) gets 20mpg when I drive the speed limit. It goes down to about 18mpg when I'm driving 85mph, I average about 16mpg with mostly city driving. I also have 33" on it so that hurting it a little.

I'm going to put an AirDog unit on it soon because I'm having troubles with it loosing prime occasionally. I can't believe they didn't put a lift pump on these years and rely on vacuum to pull the fuel to the injection pump (10 in_mg). Anyway AirDog claims 1-2mpg but most people say 0.5mpg increase but less air to the injectors = longer life.
