I don't have a 362, but I do have a 361 and a 044 and the 361 will get whooped by the 044. The 044 is my favorite saw in my arsenal.

The 361 and I would assume the 362 is the same for this, but the 361 snuffs ot like nothing if you use the spikes.
Ya and I left the magnum spikes on.there before I shipped it to Mastermind! Hes probably cussing me!!

What about if u ported the 361?
 
KG, I have not been quiet, you just have not been looking in the right places. For the record, when I first broke the 362 C-M in, I thought it ran close to as good as my bone stock 044. Then I added a dual port muffler and K&N filter to the 044 and it is on a whole different level. (also moved the hi & low screws 1/8 turn out).

The 362 is lighter, smooth and cuts well, but it does not have the torque of the 044. For wood 15" or less I prefer the 362, for wood over 20" I prefer the 044. For in between, flip a coin.

Sorry if I built your expectations too high Randy, lets see what you can do with this thing.

(KG, aren't you glad he is not working on your camera?).
 
And for the record, I did report that my saw bogged easily until I ran about 5 tanks of fuel through it. The owners manual say break in is 5 - 15 tanks!

So if you are running a saw that has not yet been broken it, yes, it will run like a turd.

Hey, I offered to send my fully broken in 362 to you, but as I recall you were the one that did not have the time.
 
Why has this turned into lets see if the 362 is a 044 or bigger saw?I bought the 362 as a 59cc saw and thats what it is . I bought this for my small saw to cut smaller wood and a 461 for bigger wood.
Because if the thread doesn't go sideways or off topic by post #50 its not officially a Mastermind thread so we were working on it.
