It followed the 044, 440 and a 460 to a local tree guy. The same guy who gave me that load of wood.
Debating on replacing it with a Ver II 362, or not. Likely I will just get the 462 ported instead, and build another Hybrid or 2.
I still have a couple of Asian 440s I have not yet built, in addition to some new OEM 460 pistons and used OEM 460 jugs (OK, one is an 046 D jug).
And then I plan to put an original OEM 066 jug on my original 066 saw, and put the cross P+C on an Asian 660 I have (plus I'll port both cylinders).
Projects, projects, projects!!!
I was talking about Matt's.
I've never been a fan of the ms362, the original was a big turd out of the box, that being said I've never had one of the new cm's or even ran one.
When I got my first 362 I had a mm 310 that would put it to shame. That 310 was a lot like your 044 sounds, it was just that real fast saw unlike the other 310's I've owned, I also had a 2153(346 in a red wrapper) that was the baddest 346 chassis saw I've ever owned in stock form. It's neat when you get one of those, unfortunately it seems I've always let them go before I realized what they were
, oh well the ported ones rise to the occasion.
Personally I'd get the 462 ported, the 362 doesn't make much sense to me in comparison even ported.
I'd be happy to run my 2171 agains that 044, I think she's exceptional, no interest in selling this one(well at least right now
).
