I got a poulan pro 655 BP from a member here. I haven't got to run it but my dad has it at his place and might start it up tomorrow. I'm trying to decide what bar to put on it. I've got the 32" tsumura light or a 30" cannon. I might need to pick up a big bar to use at gtgs.

I believe it is boost port.
Nice 655, your going to like it.
The large mount Husky bars fit pretty well on them. You may have to file the slot out just a smidge.

The 32 or the 30 will work well. I have that saw with a 36, a 32 and a 30 and they all pull them well with full comp 3/8s. My favorite for firewood is a 28.

I always buy stihl mount bars just in case so I'll have to make an adapter to fit the studs. The only husky mount bars I have are 24" and I think that will be too short for most use it will see. I plan to only take it out to buck big wood and gtgs. I don't know how that will work out since I'll probably love how it runs:msp_thumbup:. This saw and a 166 were basically the top of the want list.

Very nice saw. You will love it.
I had one of mine at the Maine GTG last Saturday
and those that got a chance to run it really liked
it.

It really depends on the P62. The carb it has and the P/C, etc. But yes, It's possible may be a tad stronger.

Alright I ran almost a tank through it today in a log pile cutting up some poplar that was seasoned out pretty good and some cherry. It ran great. I'm real impressed with the power of it. The 576 felt like a toy after using it for a few minutes.
Just out of curiosity what was the 655 rated at hp wise? Acres doesn't list it.
