Name's Seth and live in the southern Adirondacks. Been creepin around the forum awhile now and figured it's time to introduce myself. This summer there was a small gtg organized and got to race stock saws (8-10 guys). Needless to say I'm hooked and have acquired a case of CAD. I've been cutting firewood since I was 12 or so. Most local guys run 372's and 385's there is a few 390's and a 660 that showed up at the gtg. I've got a strong running 372xp and a shiny new 562xp with less than 10 tanks thru it. My goal is to embarrass every local that shows (especially that 660). So the question is build up one of the saws I've got or find a bigger cc project? Thanks

Help Support Arborist Forum:
Either a 372, 385, or 390 would be a great candidate for that. Welcome.
Your 372 definitely has the most potential to impress.
Depends what you're trying to do with it. If you're talking about both saws running a 36" bar, buried in oak, I don't think you will ever beat a good running o66. If you're talking about a 10x10 can't race, then the 372 will be fine. No saw is the best at everything, although I do think a 70cc is the best one saw plan there is.
Would it be more sensible to send mine out or try buying already able to impress?

Welcome!! A couple things frist.
#1 you're going to get infected with the disease called CAD.
#2 everyone on AS likes pictures.
Your 372 is able to be woken up and be a great run day in day out saw. Now lets see your 1066!

Nice! no you will be fine storing ur saws that way.
No 1066 for me, I grew up working on a couple farms, that was always my favorite tractor. Always amazed me tractors that old just keep plugging away. Now with a house,wife,2 kids and a regular job I don't get to spend much time on the farm.

Gotcha. I grow up on IH tractors, we had a 1066 for years. It was a tough tractor that really never quite. This is a few we still have 
What on earth did you use that impact gun for the starter? Lol nice tractors!!!

Anything and everything! Around the Farm plus we have a few big trucks. Nice thing is if you have a nut that won't come off you just snap it off.
