A saw should say on off separate choke imo not gadgets more complicated than most women! Yup for me its keep it simple quit putting trinkets and gadgets on that I'm stuck in the tree waiting on the groundy to figure out.

Ported 036.
Nice with a 20", but pulls a 28" like a stock 044.

My BU-64 - that's a Butt Ugly 029 with a 390 jug (64cc), 460 carb, retimed and a MM. Oh yeah, it also runs a 20" Husky lightweight laminated NK bar, 9-pin with the rakers lowered to the softwood setting (and I mostly cut Ozzie hardwood). Insane for limbing and capable of bucking with the bar buried. I had to put dual spikes on it to help keep the bucking cuts straight.

There was a thread on 'Rat Rods' where I showed some pictures of it. I had to look around for the crappiest bar cover I could find to go with the rest of the saw. She's a beauty.... http://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/the-rat-rod-of-chainsaws.259019/page-4#post-4856332
The modded 3CM carb was replaced with the modded 460 carb. I also removed the washers from the compression release and spark plug to bump up the compression.

I'll take the MS261, it makes it look like I am contributing while the crew does all the real work

I'm sorry guys. I tried. I really did! I just can't do it. I could limit it to two, but not one. I just don't understand how you could ask me to do such a thing
Up until a month ago I was going to say my Zoo City Ported 346.
I then picked up a 262... I ran that saw for a afternoon before I shipped that to Zoo City.
I know without a doubt that the 262 will be my primary saw from that afternoons use.

dang that's a lot of saws ive got 4 and I get told ive got too many lol
372 xpw cause I ain't got no time for fiddlin with flippy caps and besides it out cuts any 440
IMO, a 10 mm 044 is lighter than a 372 and will out cut it. Wish we lived closer so we could do a head to head test. That said, they are both great choices, enjoy that saw.
Is it diesel or regular gasoline?

No secret that the 262 is a factory hot rod, having said that, just wait till you get it back..... it's gonna blow your mind!
A video was just posted of it on SH. It looks mean.
It should get here just in time for the Michigan GTG
