359 Wood Beast.

[Mr.]

No need to wonder. They do if you are talking ported 359 to a stock 361. I know Timberwolf would likely put his ported 359 against a stock 660. These are tough saws with a ton of potential.

Yeah, TW has one that he says is right on the edge. I am going for AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE to a 372 in up to 14 inch wood. I'll work on my pictures.

Fred you are going to like this saw, you will be right up there with that 372 in no time.

359

I have a 359 that was blessed by the hands of Big Dave. Not completely broken-in yet but I have been pretty pleased with it. Just wish Husky used the inboard clutch.

 

[Hired Gun]

Rydaddy, how is it doing up against that WHS 361?

 

[Rydaddy]

Whs361

The 361 was a used saw when it was sent to WHS. It came back an absolute SCREAMER. It is broken-in well and I laughed (really) the last time I used because it cuts so dang fast. The 359 is not broken in yet, and I just got a tach so I could make sure my saws are tuned correctly. Can't make a comparison yet but will certainly do so once the 359 is broken in. That 361 is blazing fast, so much so that I wonder if by accident I didn't get a stageIII mod by accident with emphasis on RPM/speed.

I am planning on selling one of them but haven't decided which one has to go. I have more invested in the 361... but we will see.

Hey RyDaddy, Just a quetion of intrest.
with all the saws you have, they are modded.
Have you ever thought of modding your own saw ?
Why do you stick to other people modding your saws ?

 

[Rydaddy]

Self Made Mods....

Manual.

Excellent Question?

I honestly don't think I have the "Know-How" or skills to do a complete "woods port mod." I did however just the other night, rip apart the crimped muffler on my 5100 and tear out the junk inside and increase the size of the outlet hole. That was a big step for a guy like me. I then painted it with black high-temp paint and re-assembled. That prompted me to paint the 7900 as well.

I'm a Jack-of-all trades and a Master of none. Pretty good at a lot of manual labor type tasks and will attack just about any situation that comes my way at both work and home. But I really don't think I have the aptitude for opening up a cylinder honing down the piston, etc.... and getting it all back together.

Maybe I'm crazy for not trying it... maybe someday. If anyone wants to send me a dead saw to hack up I may give it a try...
