I could have sworn he said they where 372XP pistons. Just in case, I bet he is refering to a Husky saw in case you where wondering Brad. :biggrin:

Not a Husqvarna piston. Using those makes you come in the 5th-20th positions in a serious GTG.

Exactly. I am part way through your buddies 346. I am going to lean on it pretty hard just because it is such a gem of a saw and I rarely get to do them.

I figured no matter what brand it is as long as it says modified by the Simonizer on it somewheres it would almost guarantee the chances of finishing in the top 5.

Well,,,,
Thanks for the vote of confidence Steve ole buddy!!!!,,,, FWIW,,, that was the first Timed event Ive ever been in,,, and was a bit nervous and totally missed the tune up,,,, I'm not making excuses,,, The 3rd place saw was modded very similar to what my buddy Simon does and as I have done before minus hogging out the lower transfers like I did on my first 066 mod, It was tuned exactly like the 9th place saw that I hung the dog on in my first run...
after all the runs were recorded for the contest I leaned the ninth place saw (parrisw's build) a bit and had room for more tweaking,,,,,,,, it ran a 22.46....
Never had time to tweak the third place saw,,, my build Simon style,,, which ran a 23.8,,, I feel certain it would have run a very low 20 possibly a 19...
The main thing is I did have fun and I did learn something....
Cheers bro!!!!

Simonized saws
I have been falling. Coastal wood for the last 23 years. Fell spruce trees up too 12 feet and cedar up to 15. Used ported 2100 husky's, ported ms660's. I heard about Simon a few years back. I decided to try one of his ms460's. I am running a lightweight 32 inch bar with square ground 75cj chain. The saw is a rocket and is ran 6.5 hrs a day. My second one, a ms460 arctic is in back of truck heading to the woods tomorrow. I let a couple of other fallers try it. One ordered two for himself and the other ordered a 372. They both are full time callers and love these saws. The shop here was getting in ported saws from another builder, but is now ordering in Simons saws.
Love your saws Simon. With good ground 3/8 chain on a 32" bar they seem to almost speed up in the cut. We all run silvey grinders. I have the Prosharp and love it. Have been following this thread for awhile. Wanted to get on sooner and say that your saws are a workers saw and not just a hobbiest. Simon your ms460 is by far the most favorite saw that I have fell with.

Way to go Indian !
Hey Indian, if eventually it would turn out to be a mishap, which I doubt, I'll gladly support financially to cover the expenses.
If it turns out to be positive, I'll settle for a Stihl cap signed by Tom Hall personally.
Ok folks, I don't want to spoil the fun here, but now that things look to be very positive after all, I wish to remind y'all about my conditions for the deal ....hehe :msp_wink:
Ok, If Tom Hall is too much to ask, I'll settle for a Simon signed cap as well....:hmm3grin2orange:
